Orbán’s convoy involved in fatal accident with police officer in Germany

An accident in Germany involving the escort of Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orbán resulted in the death of a police officer and serious injury to another. The tragedy occurred in Stuttgart, where Orbán had attended his country’s team’s match against Scotland in the European Championship. Despite the incident, Orbán was uninjured and continued to Stuttgart airport, where he departed for Rome to meet with Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni.

According to reports from CNN and German press agencies, the accident occurred when a 69-year-old driver driving a BMW failed to notice a street was blocked for the Prime Minister’s convoy to pass through. The driver hit the motorcycle of a 61-year-old police officer, causing it to collide with another motorcycle carrying a 27-year-old police officer who was hospitalized in serious condition.

The incident cast a shadow over Orbán’s visit to Italy and highlighted the risks faced by law enforcement officers in the line of duty. The tragic outcome serves as a reminder of the dangers that accompany high-profile events and the importance of maintaining vigilance and safety protocols during such occasions.
