Arrest made, followed by vehicle confiscation concludes pursuit
In an incident that unfolded in the heart of Dortmund on September 2nd, a 52-year-old man from Breckerfeld found himself in police custody following a high-speed chase.
The dramatic chase, which involved the Dortmund police, commenced around 4:30 PM near Brackeler Straße. The suspect, driving a silver BMW, reportedly attempted to flee from the authorities.
During the chase, the BMW allegedly damaged a parked vehicle and a police vehicle, causing a commotion in the bustling city. The pursuit ended on a factory site in Eberhardstraße, where the man abandoned the BMW and continued his escape on foot.
Civilian enforcement officers managed to apprehend the man on a nearby vacant lot. The BMW was seized as evidence and taken away for further investigation.
Upon his arrival at the police station North, the man underwent drug and urine tests, which reportedly came back positive. Despite the positive test results, the man was released after a blood sample was taken.
Investigations are ongoing, and the authorities have yet to disclose the name of the man arrested. It is also unclear what charges, if any, will be brought against him.
The incident, while intense, did not result in any injuries. The Dortmund police are asking for any witnesses to come forward with information. For further inquiries, the public is encouraged to contact Polizei Dortmund at 0231/132-1039, email [email protected], or visit Dortmund Police Website.
