A patrol car is involved in an accident in Darmstadt.

The police had previously delivered a chase with a motorcyclist.

Darmstadt – Everything actually looked like a routine operation: The police want to stop and check the driver of a motocross motorcycle in Darmstadt on Thursday evening (May 11) around 6 p.m.

Background: He had previously been traveling on Gräfenhäuser Straße at "significantly excessive" speed.

But the biker decides to flee.

The police took up the pursuit.

The patrol car, which was traveling with blue lights and a siren, collided with another car at Pfnorstraße in Darmstadt, which was being driven by a 20-year-old.

Property damage was caused to both vehicles.

After all: Nobody was injured, as reported by op-online.de.

The number plate may have contained the block letter L. We ask that you contact the traffic inspectorate of the police headquarters in southern Hesse on 06151/8756.

A chase that ended in Darmstadt made headlines last winter: it had previously passed through three federal states.
