Man Dies After 8-Meter Fall at Neu Wulmstorf Station

Police said first responders found him lifeless in the pedestrian underpass in the morning and resuscitated him until emergency services arrived. He later died from severe head injuries. According to initial investigations, the man arrived at the station shortly before 6:00 a.m. on a train from Buxtehude.

He then lay down to sleep on the wall on the north side of the platform. About 15 minutes later, he turned and fell roughly eight meters into the depths. Police are now searching for a first responder who left the scene before officers arrived.

The man, estimated to be between 30 and 40 years old, had dark hair and was wearing jogging clothes, a black jacket, and a backpack. Police are asking him to contact the Seevetal police station. — This report was generated from a dpa news agency feed.
