Trier (dpa) - The Rhineland-Palatinate Prime Minister Malu Dreyer has expressed her deepest condolences to the relatives of the victims of Trier.

It was “the very worst” that people “lost their lives” today, said the SPD politician on Tuesday evening.

At noon, a driver with an SUV hit several people and fatally injured at least two of them.

The day was a "really bad and terrible day for the relatives," said Dreyer.

In the middle of a normal day, people were torn from their lives.

“It's just very bad for all of us”.

Let her thoughts go to the injured and seriously injured, and hope and pray that they survived and recovered.

The background and the exact extent of the incident were initially unclear.

The spokesman for the Trier police headquarters, Karl-Peter Jochem, said there were several deaths and a number of seriously and seriously injured people.

The driver was arrested and the car was seized.

The police said that it was a 51-year-old German from the Trier-Saarburg district.
