Two men (26) made a terrible discovery on their way to work!

On Sunday morning, shortly before 5 a.m., the two of them drove through the Märkischesviertel in the car.

According to the 26-year-old driver, he was traveling on Eichhorster Weg towards Finsterwalder Straße when he noticed a man lying on his back on the road. He swerved to the left and collided with a parked car.

The man lying on the street had a serious stab wound to his stomach. There was a long kitchen knife stuck in the wound.

Alerted rescue workers took the 69-year-old injured man to a hospital, where he was immediately operated on.

His injury was said to be life-threatening. The 26-year-old and his passenger were uninjured as a result of the evasive maneuver.

The criminal police have taken over further investigations into this case.
