Crime - Pursuit from Erkner to Köpenick
A pursuit drive from Erkner (Landkreis Oder-Spree) to Berlin-Köpenick led an driver to hand himself over to the police. According to the police, the officers had stopped the car for control in the late Tuesday evening. The driver gave gas and drove away when he saw the police. A police officer and a passerby with a dog saved themselves by jumping out of the way to avoid being hit by the car.
From Berlin-Köpenick on, the man continued his escape on foot. Preliminary indications, according to police information, suggest that a 48-year-old Berliner known to the police was in the car. The suspect did not have a driver's license, and the car was neither registered nor insured.
- The pursuit of the unlicensed driver, who was wanted by the police, originated in Erkner, a town in the Brandenburg district of Oder-Spree.
- The high-speed chase resulted in a traffic crime, endangering the safety of other road users in the city of Berlin.
- Despite the incident in Köpenick, the suspect managed to flee the scene on foot, ultimately evading capture in the urban landscape of Berlin.
- Subsequent investigations revealed that the car involved in the pursuit was neither registered nor insured in the OR-SPREE district or elsewhere in Brandenburg.
- The police are now actively searching for the Berlin resident in connection with this traffic crime, hoping to bring him to justice for his violation of the law.
