Three people have died following a fatal crash on Rue de Neudorf in the capital this morning.
A serious collision left three people dead and one injured on the road leading from Findel into the city at around 10.10am on Monday.
A vehicle had attempted to overtake a bus which had pulled over at a bus stop, when a second car behind them did the same, colliding with the first. The impact of the collision left a 64-year-old man and 31-year-old woman in the rear car with fatal injuries, while a 40-year-old female pedestrian also died at the scene as a result of the crash.
The occupant of the first car suffered injuries in the collision. Multiple emergency crews were dispatched to the scene.
The prosecutor's office sent a crash investigation team to the scene and seized both vehicles. The road was closed to traffic during investigations.
Seeking witnesses
The public prosecutor's office is looking for witnesses from the time of the crash, namely occupants of the queue of cars who would have been overtaken by the second vehicle. These witnesses are advised to contact the police on 244401000.
A person is also said to have been walking in the area at the scene of the crash, having passed the deceased pedestrian only moments before the fatal accident. The public prosecutor's office has issued a plea for this witness to come forward.
