A 67-year-old woman was severely injured in an E-bike accident in Röhrmoos on Tuesday afternoon.

On Tuesday afternoon, a 67-year-old woman suffered severe injuries in an E-bike accident in the Röhrmoos district. The incident occurred around 5 PM in the Sigmertshausen area of Arzbach, where the cyclist was riding along Weinbergstraße. According to the Dachau police department, the circumstances leading to the accident are still unknown. Importantly, no other traffic participants were involved in the incident, isolating it as an individual mishap.

Following the accident, emergency services responded promptly, and the injured woman was transported to the hospital. Fortunately, the police reported that her injuries were serious, but her life is not in danger, which offers some relief amid the unfortunate circumstances.
