Cyclist accused of knocking down little girl appears in court

Belgium 10:50 04/02/2021 The cyclist who knocked down a five-year-old girl while she and her family were walking in the High Fens (Hautes Fagnes) on Christmas Day appeared before the Verviers Correctional Court on Wednesday. He is accused of deliberately bringing down the little girl so that he could pass without having to stop. The 60-year-old, who was identified after the video of the incident was posted on social media, said on Wednesday: “When I left my home and set off, there was hardly anyone there. There was one stretch of the route of about 1km, near Baraque Michel, where there were a lot of pedestrians,” he explained during the hearing. “I braked, I adapted my speed, and I activated my 120-decibel horn,” said the defendant.
