BERLIN (Reuters) - A German man whom investigators suspect of murdering British toddler Madeleine McCann was injured while being taken to a parole hearing, a German court said on Tuesday. The 43-year-old German, Christian B., lived in the Algarve region of Portugal when the toddler - who was three at the time - vanished from her bedroom in 2007. He is serving a sentence in Kiel in northern Germany for drug dealing. The Braunschweig court said he sustained injuries to his ribs when law enforcement officers were putting ankle cuffs on him before a parole hearing on Monday. German media including mass-circulation Bild and Der Spiegel had reported that Christian B. broke two ribs during the incident.
