The 15-year-old driver of a car-sharing car was in a chase with the police in Düsseldorf.

The provider was already suspicious.

Düsseldorf – This is what happens when a teenager gets behind the wheel: The pursuit of a car-sharing car in Düsseldorf-Ludenberg ended in a property damage accident on the morning of September 28th.

The police took a 15-year-old to the station as a suspected driver.

The investigations are ongoing.

According to the current status of the investigation, a car-sharing company reported to the police yesterday morning.

She had the suspicion that one of her vehicles had repeatedly been used without authorization, reports 24RHEIN.

15-year-old races through Düsseldorf in a car-sharing car – and flees from the police

• What?

  A 15-year-old drove through Ludenberg in a car-sharing car and tried to flee from the police.

  Then he built an accident and had to go to the station.

• Where?

  Düsseldorf-Ludenberg, Benderstrasse

• When?

  September 28, morning

By handing over the coordinates, the police officers discovered the vehicle on Benderstrasse and gave the driver clear signals to stop.

The driver then fled at high speed on inner-city streets, drove grossly in violation of traffic and sometimes into oncoming traffic before causing a single-vehicle accident in the Ernst-Poensgen-Allee area.

A 15-year-old was identified as the driver and arrested by witnesses before he could continue to flee on foot.

The police took the boy to the police station, where he was picked up by a legal guardian.

Investigations into the exact circumstances of the trip are ongoing.

Most recently, a 12-year-old drove through the city in Dortmund in a stolen Audi.
