On Saturday afternoon, after a complaint was made by the German group DSM, the Gendarmerie requested public assistance to try to identify the cause of the accident. A telephone number was even provided for people who could provide data to facilitate the arrest. In the fall, with multiple victims, the most affected were cyclists Jasha Sütterlin and Marc Soler; both were unable to continue in the race, although the Catalan runner reached the finish line with both arms fractured.

The accident occurred 45 kilometers from the finish line when the spectator entered the road, reserved for the large group, with a banner in which he greeted his grandparents in German. Tony Martin, of the set Jumbo, swallowed the poster and dragged in his fall to numerous runnerss. According to RTL, the woman is in the police situation called ‘garde à vue’, which allows the police to arrest her for several hours before the judicial intervention. The woman, if there are no more complaints or requests for compensation, risks an initial fine of 1,500 euros.
