A tragic accident involving a street race has left authorities scrambling for answers in the city of Duisburg.

According to reports, a 20-year-old man from Duisburg was racing with an unknown driver in a black car. The incident occurred when the white BMW driven by the 20-year-old lost control and went off the road, resulting in the vehicle being severely damaged.

The police arrived at the scene promptly and found the 20-year-old with minor injuries. An ambulance was called to transport him to the hospital for treatment. Witnesses reported that the unknown driver of the black car fled the scene immediately after the accident.

The Traffic Commission 21 has launched an investigation into the accident, and the specialized traffic accident response team from Essen has secured the scene. The damaged white BMW has been impounded as evidence in the investigation. If the black car is found, it could also be seized as evidence.

The police have called on witnesses to contact them at 0203 2800 with any information about the alleged race or the fleeing black car. The investigation is likely to focus not only on the identity of the unknown driver but also on the circumstances surrounding the accident.

The outcome of the investigation could have significant implications for the 20-year-old man from Duisburg. He is facing a criminal proceeding for suspected participation in an illegal street race, and the investigation may also influence the final decision on his driver's license status.

The search for the black car involved in the race is ongoing, but no specific details about the unknown driver or the black car have been disclosed in the available reports. The police are working diligently to gather more information and bring those responsible for the accident to justice.

As the investigation continues, we urge everyone to drive safely and responsibly on the roads. Street racing is not only illegal but also extremely dangerous and can have devastating consequences. Let us remember the importance of road safety and respect for the rules of the road.
