Crash into Wall - Driver Dies in Hospital - Elderly driver dies after car crashes into German house in tragic accident
An 84-year-old driver crashed into a house in Bergisch Gladbach on Saturday. The incident happened around midday when the man lost control of his car. Emergency crews rushed to the scene but could not save him.
The crash occurred on December 13, 2025, as the elderly man’s vehicle veered off course and struck the side of a residential building. First responders immediately began emergency resuscitation before transporting him to hospital. Despite their efforts, he later died from his injuries.
Firefighters recovered the wrecked car along with a second vehicle that had also been damaged in the collision. The German Federal Agency for Technical Relief (THW) then assessed the structural damage to the house.
Investigators believe the driver may have suffered a medical emergency before the crash. His name has not been publicly disclosed in available reports.
The incident left one man dead and caused significant damage to the property. Authorities continue to examine the circumstances surrounding the crash. The house remains under evaluation for structural safety.
