After the serious concrete mixer accident, in which, according to the fire department, there were delays in the rescue due to a blockade by climate activists, the police are investigating two of the blockers.
A spokesman for the German Press Agency said on Tuesday that a 63-year-old and a 59-year-old were being investigated for failure to provide assistance or for the disability of persons providing assistance.
The "Berliner Zeitung" had previously reported on the investigation.
According to the spokesman, the activists are said to have stuck themselves to a sign bridge on the A100.
A 44-year-old cyclist was run over by a concrete mixer truck on Monday morning in Bundesallee and trapped under the car.
Fire brigade forces with special equipment were stuck in traffic due to protests by climate demonstrators on the A100 city motorway and only arrived late at the scene of the accident, which is why the accident site had to be improvised, as the fire brigade emphasized.
The woman was taken to a hospital with life-threatening injuries.
The driver of the concrete mixer (64) was seriously injured by an initially unknown man with a knife.
