Bonn. After the restrictions imposed by the pandemic, the Bonn Christmas Market is once again running without any special Corona requirements this year. Rush to the stall magic: Thousands of people were on the move at Bonn's Christmas market on Saturday. In the early evening, families with prams crowded around the rides and all the tables in the mulled wine stalls were occupied. In some places it was so crowded in the city centre that progress was sometimes very slow. In the meantime, all the parking spaces in the Stadthausgarage and the Friedensplatzgarage were taken.

Königswinter. Shortly before 3 p.m. on Sunday, a very pregnant 29-year-old woman had an accident with her car at the Adriansberg in Königswinter-Thomasberg. For reasons that are not yet clear, she lost control of her car and overturned. According to the fire brigade, the car remained on its roof, so that the woman could not free herself from the car.

The emergency services of the Königswinter fire brigade first used their own muscle power to secure the car against sliding away on the steep road. The woman was then rescued from the vehicle. She received medical attention on the spot. A rescue helicopter was then called to take the woman, who was presumably seriously injured, to a nearby hospital.
