Two people have died and six people were injured after two motorboats collided in northwest Germany.
Police in Oldenburg said the incident happened shortly before 2 AM today on the Barsseler Tief, a river near the Dutch border.
Police said the dead a 24-year-old woman and a 27-year-old man were sitting in a motorboat that was rammed side-on by another vessel.
Warm weather has resulted in a sharp rise in drownings and watersports injuries in Germany in recent days.
At least four more people died yesterday, including a 10-month-old baby who had fallen into the river Neckar near the southwestern town of Mosbach.
The baby's mother, an asylum-seeker from Eritrea, attempted to rescue the child. Unable to swim, she was pulled from the river by passers-by.
