A drunk man has been in a three-county chase with police.
Previously he had built an accident.
First he built an accident, then he fled from the police through three districts - also through Freising.
The 79-year-old driver from the Freising district, who was "visibly drunk" according to the police, encountered an Audi in its lane around 7 p.m. on Sunday on Dachauer Strasse in Haimhausen (Dachau district).
Its driver (69) was able to dodge, but the BMW touched the Audi anyway.
He caused damage of 2,000 euros and continued in the direction of the B 13.
A witness followed the BMW and called the police.
(By the way: everything from the region is now also available in our regular Freising newsletter.)
The escape went through several places in the districts of Dachau, Freising and Pfaffenhofen – also via the A 9. After almost an hour, the Freising police were able to arrest the 79-year-old in Eberstetten (district of Pfaffenhofen).
He had over one per thousand alcohol in his blood.
His driver's license was confiscated.
Since the man repeatedly endangered other road users during his escape, the investigating Dachau police are asking all witnesses of the escape trip to call Tel. (0 81 31) 56 910.
