Dramatic moment roof lands on car during storm in Germany

Dashcam footage has captured the moment a massive piece of roofing felt crashed onto a car driving in stormy weather in the western German city of Cologne.

Both people inside the car were unharmed but had to be helped out by firefighters.

The incident came as stormy weather caused severe travel disruption in Germany, forcing cancellations and delays to rail and air traffic, particularly in the west of the country.

Police said a 47-year-old driver died when a tree fell on his car in Bestwig, about 62 miles north-east of Cologne.
