Polizeiruf 110: Crash

ÖZET

A young woman is run over on the streets of Magdeburg at night and dies at the scene of the accident. The driver commits a hit and run. He was traveling at extremely high speed. Brasch and Köhler quickly suspect that it may have been an illegal car race. But how do you find the racing drivers and the guilty party? And how do you prove in retrospect that a race has taken place? There are no witnesses, no one has seen the death car. The father of Sara, the victim, is questioned, but he reveals very little about his daughter. Car repair shops are visited and the internet is scoured for illegal races. Finally the commissioners find a group called "Le Magdeburg". To her surprise, two drivers connect with the dead woman. Tommy and Henry loved Sara. The autopsy reveals another secret: the dead woman was two months pregnant. Was the motive jealousy? Brasch and Köhler attach themselves to the racing drivers, and a new trail leads them to the Czech border. Did someone want to silence Sara? The new case demands strategy and speed from the commissioners before they uncover all the drama behind the young woman's death.
