"The accident in question, which occurred in the town of Schwerte, happened when the driver of the Tesla attempted to pass a caravan of vehicles and then, mysteriously, swerved off the road. The car then drove into a ditch and slammed into a tree, causing the Tesla to catch fire. Inside, the driver and the two nine-year-old kids were killed by the flames, but a third child - also nine - miraculously was able to get out of the vehicle,"
"A bystander also tried to open the doors but couldn't rescue the people inside, and it took firefighters several times to extinguish the flames, according to 20 Minuten. It's not clear how the child survivor of the horrific accident was able to exit the vehicle - whether they were rescued by first responders or were able to break out of the car on their own."
