After a rock concert at Frankfurt’s football stadium, two people died on Saturday night. According to police, they were on the tracks near the stadium, in the southwestern part of the city. The 45-year-old man and 25-year-old woman were hit by an S-Bahn, a spokeswoman for the Federal Police responsible for the railway said.
Even before the fatal accident, at around 11:40 pm, parts of the railway line were closed because several people got onto the tracks after rock band Böhse Onkelz’s concert at the Deutsche Bank Park stadium, the spokeswoman said. The engineer initiated emergency braking, but was unable to avoid the accident.
