Management of Road Traffic under Influence of Alcohol
64-Year-Old Man Faces DUI Charges in Schleiden
In an incident that occurred on Gemünder Street in Schleiden on Saturday, 30th August, a 64-year-old man was stopped and checked by police officers. A strong smell of alcohol was detected, leading to a voluntary breath alcohol test that showed a reading of 1.28 per mil, significantly above the legal limit.
As a result, the man was prohibited from continuing his journey and his driver's license was confiscated. A report was filed for driving under the influence, and it is likely that his car was impounded due to the circumstances of the traffic stop.
Further evidence was gathered when a blood sample was taken from the man at the Schleiden police station, which will be analyzed for additional findings. The man's identity beyond his age (64) was not specified, and the exact location where the legal proceedings would take place was not mentioned.
The prosecutor who will file charges against the man has not been publicly named, but it is clear that the man is potentially facing charges for driving under the influence. Given the results of the breath alcohol test and subsequent blood sample, it appears that the man's case may be subject to legal proceedings as a result of the traffic stop.
