Lüneburg (dpa / lni) - On the way to school, a 19-year-old driver died.

As the police and fire brigade announced, the young man lost control of his small car in a curve on Kreisstraße 22 between Alt Garge and Bleckede (Lüneburg district) on Tuesday morning.

He skidded and stood sideways.

An oncoming 53-year-old driver drove into the vehicle, so that the 19-year-old was trapped.
