A suspected criminal probably didn't think about it when he sat in a taxi with an apparently stolen safe: In Siegen, North Rhine-Westphalia, emergency services arrested the man after the taxi driver had informed the officials about his passenger with the unusual luggage, such as the police announced.

Using the pretext of calling a friend, the taxi driver reported to the police and kept them informed of his location during the journey.

The police finally stopped the taxi and checked the 27-year-old passenger.

In addition to the safe, for which the man had no key, the officers found other stolen goods and drugs on him.

He was provisionally arrested.

However, since there was no reason for detention, the suspect was released.

A criminal case awaits the man.
