Pursuit in Hattersheim: BMW driver seriously injured and fled!
On Tuesday night, a turbulent event occurred in Hattersheim, in the Main-Taunus district, which called both the police and fire departments into action. A 37-year-old man chased the officers, which ultimately ended in a serious accident. At 1:49 a.m. the police wanted to check the driver's BMW on Heddingheimer Strasse. But instead of stopping, the man really accelerated and tried to escape, as hessenschau.de reports.
The escape ended quickly when the driver collided with a barrier post and seriously injured his leg. Firefighters had to free him from the vehicle before he was taken to hospital, where a blood sample was taken due to suspected alcohol and drug consumption, according to presseportal.de.
Evidence in the car
During the search of the vehicle, officers not only seized weapons, but also stolen license plates. The investigation also revealed that the driver did not have a valid driving license. He will now have to answer for several crimes. In addition to the 37-year-old, there was another person in the car who was able to escape on foot. The police are now looking for this possible accomplice, who, according to witness statements, is said to be around 180 cm tall, dressed in a beige top and had a three-day beard.
Overall, this incident shows how dangerous it can be to evade police checks. The police are calling on the public to pass on information about the person they are looking for to the Hofheim police station by calling (06192) 2079-0.
