Car stolen in Bad Hersfeld and completely destroyed in crash!

An unusual incident occurred in Bad Hersfeld on the evening of December 5, 2025, which is likely to be a hot topic not only for the police, but also for the affected residents. At around 8:30 p.m., a 27-year-old man left his car at a gas station with the engine running while he stopped by the shop. When he returned, his Audi A4 was missing.

Police reported that two young men stole the vehicle. There was a crash not far from the gas station in which the stolen car crashed into a traffic light and a traffic sign. According to law enforcement officials, the perpetrators fled on foot towards the commercial area after the accident.

Details about the incident and the perpetrators

The two men fled towards the city center, specifically along Frankfurter Straße, before they left the road at the Picasso intersection and drove across a traffic island. The total economic loss of the vehicle amounts to around 10,000 euros, plus the damage to the traffic lights and the traffic sign, which were also completely destroyed.

The perpetrators have a southern appearance and are estimated to be around 20 to 25 years old. They are also characterized by a height of around 170 cm and dark clothing. The police already have data that could potentially help solve the crime and are asking all witnesses to call 06621/932-0. The investigation into vehicle theft and unauthorized removal from the scene of an accident is ongoing.

Alcohol and possible consequences

The case takes another explosive turn when the injured party is tested for alcohol. The 27-year-old was found to have a strong smell of alcohol, which could mean he could potentially lose his driving license. This is another aspect that is likely to aggravate the situation for the man who has already been the victim of a criminal attack.

The incident therefore raises several questions: How safe are our streets and parking lots? What can be done to prevent such thefts? Local police will make every effort to identify the perpetrators and inform residents as the investigation continues. The neighborhood remains excited and hopes to hear more progress soon.

As tagesschau.de reports, this is not the first incident of this kind in the region, and the discussion about security issues is unlikely to stop in the coming days. Presseportal.de also emphasizes the urgency of quickly solving such incidents in order to protect the population. It remains to be seen what measures will be taken to increase safety on the roads.
