Police received reports of an alleged kidnapping incident on the scene
In an unusual turn of events, a group of five individuals found themselves in hot water after a prank they played on a fellow passenger during their trip to Stuttgart took a turn for the worse.
The incident, which occurred on Saturday, caused a brief stir in Blücherstraße, with a witness reporting seeing three men loading a man into the trunk of a Golf at around 8:45 PM. The witness, who chose not to intervene, did write down the license plate number of the vehicle and promptly alerted the police.
Upon receiving the report, the police initiated an investigation and managed to stop the vehicle near the Pforzheim Ost highway entrance. The occupants, who were initially tight-lipped, eventually admitted to playing a prank on their fellow passenger. They claimed they had put the "smallest" occupant in the trunk as part of the joke, but let him out shortly after.
Remarkably, the occupant did not feel like a victim and made statements that were deemed credible by the police. However, the prank was still considered illegal and the five occupants were arrested and taken to the police station in Fulda for questioning.
Although the man who was allegedly kidnapped was not identified in the article, it is clear that this incident served as a reminder of the importance of responsible behaviour and the potential consequences of pranks gone wrong. The events described in this article occurred in an unspecified location within Blücherstraße, though no specific address was given.
The police continue to investigate the incident and it is unclear at this time what charges, if any, will be brought against the five occupants. The public is advised to remain vigilant and report any suspicious activities to the authorities.
