Rapid chase: tank fraudsters at 180 km/h!

On Wednesday afternoon, at 11.30 a.m., the Bavarian police were informed about a tank fraud in the Amberg area. A man had filled up an off -road vehicle at a petrol station and then drove away without paying. But that had consequences, as nn.de reported.

The officials discovered the Sweeping Sales a little later near Mitterteich. The driver, a 37-year-old, could not be caught and started fleeing. At speeds of up to 180 km/h, he raced over country roads and through several towns towards Mähring, which was a considerable danger for many road users.

escape with consequences

Shortly after the off -road vehicle had left Poppenreuth behind, the driver turned into a field and rammed a police vehicle. The rapid escape ended in a forest where the vehicle got stuck after it had run over several small trees. The driver tried to escape on foot, but was quickly found and arrested by police dogs and a helicopter. The Süddeutsche has these exciting details Zeitung Squiously summarized.

Overall, the local history was given a rather glimpse of the outcome; There were no injuries to complain. However, the 37-year-old now has to answer for several offenses.

The police do not rule out that further investigations will follow to clarify the entire background, so that the Bavaria remains vigilant.
