Insubordinate driver
Insane car journey after drug overdose
Still pumped full of drugs, a 40-year-old man set off on an incredible journey from Amstetten to Upper Austria. There he almost ran over a police officer. The man could only be arrested after an accident. Unbelievable: the man had been found with a drug overdose in the morning.
A police patrol noticed a car at the Allhaming-Nord service station at around 12 noon on Tuesday. The driver had sounded the horn several times while parking for no apparent reason. A police officer then tried to stop the driver by making clear gestures. He also verbally identified himself as a police officer. When the driver noticed this, he drove towards the officer. The police officer was hit by the hood as the driver continued to accelerate, but remained uninjured.
Escape ended on the highway exit
The fleeing driver - who later turned out to be a 40-year-old Syrian national - was caught up with on the A1 towards Salzburg. He continued to disregard all attempts to stop.
Finally, he crashed into an impact absorber at the Sattledt exit. The driver was then arrested. One police officer suffered minor injuries during the arrest.
Long list of offenses
The driver was apparently impaired and gave no details of the offense. But then the full extent became known. It was discovered that the vehicle used had been stolen shortly beforehand in Amstetten. The man had been found in Amstetten that morning with a drug overdose and taken to hospital.
The accused was then examined at Linz University Hospital, where no injuries were found. He was then transferred to the police detention center (PAZ) in Linz, as the accused had given false information about his identity. The person he named is demonstrably in prison.
