Oberhausen (dpa / lnw) - A 45-year-old driver crashed into a tree in a forest in Oberhausen and died.

The man had previously strayed from a street with his car, the police said.

He was therefore trapped by the impact in the vehicle wreck and suffered life-threatening injuries to which he later succumbed in a hospital.

According to the police, it was not yet clear how the solo accident could come about on Saturday early in the morning.
