Doctor Who star John Barrowman posted videos to twitter after being caught up in a fatal car incident in Berlin which left a teacher dead and nine others seriously injured. The actor, singer and presenter reassured fans that he is okay, but shaken, as he described the scene.
The incident happened near the popular Kurfuerstendamm shopping boulevard in the west of the German capital when a man drove a car into a German school group standing in a popular Berlin shopping district, authorities said. He then got the car back on the road and then crashed into a shop window a short distance away, police spokesman Thilo Cablitz said.
Berlin’s top security official, Iris Spranger, said the woman killed was a teacher on a school trip with students from the central German state of Hesse. Five people sustained life-threatening injuries and another three were seriously injured, fire service spokesman Adrian Wentzel told n-tv television. Police said more than a dozen people had been injured.
