A routine traffic check on Monday in Alberschwende (Vorarlberg) escalated considerably. A 57-year-old was supposed to take an alcohol test there, but the man refused and fled on foot. The escape did not last long.
A suspected drunk driver fled on foot from the police in Alberschwende in the Bregenzerwald on Monday evening. When the 57-year-old was stopped moments later, he threatened to kill the police officers. During the subsequent arrest, he resisted en masse, kicked with his legs and punched a police officer in the face. She was slightly injured, but the 57-year-old was unharmed, the management said.
As part of a check, the man was given a preliminary alcohol test, which was positive. A test on the calibrated machine should provide certainty, but the 57-year-old fled before it could get that far. He ran off down a steep grassy slope. He was released after his interrogation at the police station. In any case, the 57-year-old lost his driver’s license.
