Law enforcement officials in Northern Swabia scrutinized an intoxicated motorist on a scooter

In Augsburg, Germany, on September 25, 2024, a 26-year-old individual found themselves in a troubling situation with the Bavaria North Police Headquarters.

At around 1:30 AM, the individual was stopped while riding a scooter near the police headquarters in Hochfeld. According to reports, the police detected the smell of alcohol on the individual during a routine check.

Upon further investigation, it was discovered that the individual did not have a valid driver's license, making their operation of the scooter illegal. A breathalyzer test was administered, revealing a reading of over 1.7 per mil, confirming suspicions of driving under the influence (DUI).

The encounter between the individual and the police officers was not without incident. The individual exhibited aggressive behaviour towards the officers, offering considerable resistance during the encounter. They also threatened and insulted the officers, behaviour that is now being investigated as part of the overall incident.

The Bavaria North Police Headquarters is currently investigating charges of resisting police officers, DUI, driving without a license, and insulting and threatening the police officers.

For further inquiries, the Bavaria North Police Headquarters Press Office can be contacted at the following details:

The available search results do not provide information about the head of the Polizeidirektion Bayerisch Oberland or details about an incident involving a 26-year-old scooter rider on 25.09.2024.

This incident is a reminder of the importance of responsible behaviour on the roads and the consequences of breaking the law while under the influence of alcohol.
