At the age of 15 on the run: fall and arrest after chase!

At the age of 15 on the run: fall and arrest after chase!

On Friday evening, March 21, 2025, a dangerous incident occurred in Kriftel in Hesse when a 15-year-old teenager fled a motorcycle in front of a police control. The police wanted to stop the boy around 11:45 p.m., but this accelerated strongly and ignored a red traffic light. The police did not remain inactive to his risky maneuvers and took the adolescent.

The persecution ended abruptly when the 15-year-old lost control of the motorcycle. There was a collision with a patrol car on a dirt road. The adolescent fell, but could continue to be safe on foot. Since injuries could not be excluded, the fire brigade was consulted for the search. In addition, the authorities use drones and thermal imaging cameras to track down the refugees.

After intensive searches, the 15-year-old was finally arrested in Frankfurt-Zeilsheim. He suffered minor injuries during his escape. He is now suspected of having to answer for driving without driving license and dangerous intervention in road traffic. The police secured the motorcycle.

These incidents are not limited to Hesse. In Dortmund there was another chase trip shortly after midnight when a VW Golf overtook a patrol car with excessive speed. The 21-year-old driver from Hagen ignored the police's attitude signals and fled, and he also disregarded a red traffic light. Another patrol car was only able to prevent a collision by quickly dodging. Due to the high speed, however, the police broke off the persecution.

A later use of civil forces led to the determination of the VW Golf in Kielstrasse. The driver and his three passengers, aged 17 to 21, initially fled on foot, but were quickly caught. The driver had no valid driving license, and both the vehicle and the mobile phones of the occupants were secured. In addition, the suspicion of alcohol and drug use was expressed against him, which is why a blood sample was taken. He threatens several advertisements, including §315d for a prohibited vehicle race and driving without a license.

At 3:25 a.m., police officers saw an Opel Corsa in Dortmund, whose driver showed an unusual driving style. The 20-year-old driver from Kamen turned over a restricted area and also ignored several red traffic lights when he perceived the police. Finally, there was a braking in Kleppingstrasse to avoid an accident. Here, too, the suspicion of alcohol consumption was expressed, and a blood sample was taken from the driver. The vehicle and the mobile phones have been secured, and it is also displayed due to a forbidden car race.
