Serious accusations after the death of the 15-year-old
The tragic accident happened at 10 p.m.: "She told me about her friends' plans a week ago. I warned Caro urgently, but you know how teenagers can be. She was my only child, I blame myself every second," said the 38-year-old single parent as she said a silent farewell at the scene of the accident.

The friends had arranged to meet for dinner before their fatal outing and then set off on the bus. The makeshift barriers at the scene were no longer a major obstacle.

Caroline's mother is distraught: "I can't believe that people claim that the area here is safe. Caro's unnecessary death must be a warning to everyone involved. What on earth was she doing in this place?"
