This heavy fate shakes all over Germany today: A 57-year-old driver of a small truck comes on Tuesday, January 17, 2017, in a right turn at Bad Arolsen (on the B252 in northern Hesse) from its lane. Accident cause: unknown.

The small truck drives head on to an oncoming car . In it: A young married couple with two of their seven children.

The truck driver suffers serious injuries. The mother and father die at the scene of the accident. The two children in the back seat (3 and 6 years old) were flown with heavy injuries in hospitals to Kassel and Göttingen - by rescue helicopter. Her condition is now stable.

The other 5 children of the deceased couple are now staying with relatives - at least for the time being. The Youth Welfare Office must clarify who takes custody of the seven orphaned children.

The city of Bad Arolsen has now set up a donation account to support the remaining family. The (non-party) mayor of the city, Jürgen van der Horst, justified it as follows: "The breadwinner has failed and the family is not bedded on roses."

Please send donations to the city administration of Bad Arolsen. The account data:
