Woman killed by her own car

augsburg - A 67-year-old woman died in Augsburg, Germany, when she was hit by her own car. That happened at the entrance of an underground garage at her house.

The woman had apparently got off while the vehicle was at the top of the driveway. Because of unknown reasons, the car started to move and rolled or slid down while the woman was walking in front of it. She got stuck between the vehicle and the concrete wall.

The alarmed fire brigade released the woman but she died on the spot. It is possible that the slipperiness of the driveway played a role, according to the police.
