On Easter Monday, a 32-year-old Ukrainian drove his car in the wrong lane in Vienna-Floridsdorf with a blood alcohol level of approximately two per mille. When the man was arrested by the police, he suddenly fled on foot. He also injured an officer during the arrest. The man also faces several charges.
Around 9:15 p.m., officers on Katsushika Street became aware of the 32-year-old’s vehicle: the man was driving his car in the opposite direction of travel. Despite the blue lights being on, the driver initially did not stop; the vehicle only came to a stop in the area of the Horst Winterpromenade.
Alcohol test showed two per mille
There was a passenger in the car next to the 32-year-old. The Ukrainian did not have a driver’s license or vehicle documents with him during his check. “The driver was asked to get out and take an alcohol test,” the Vienna police announced on Tuesday. The breath test showed two per mille!
Police officer had to stop working
The man then tried to flee on foot, but did not get far. When he tried to stop the 32-year-old, he attacked the officers and injured one person. The police officer was unable to continue his duties.
The Ukrainian was temporarily arrested for attempted resistance to state authority and serious bodily harm. He received several advertisements.
