Finally nice weather, finally holiday time in Bavaria. People were drawn outside for a variety of activities. It was quite clear that the police were also called upon at Pentecost. From vandalism to a crashed paraglider, from an argument over a parked car to a drunk drinking his beer in the middle of the B2, everything was there.

Witnesses are asked to report to the Garmisch-Partenkirchen police (08821/9170).

Crashed paraglider pilot Garmisch-Partenkirchen - Early Sunday afternoon, May 28, a 36-year-old paraglider pilot
was no longer able to fly over the Kreuzeck coming from Osterfelder due to strong headwinds. The attempt to get to a suitable landing site via the Bodenleeine valley and Reintal failed, the pilot was seriously injured during the emergency landing in a stream bed and had to be rescued after a previous search by the Garmisch-Partenkirchen mountain rescue service, with the support of a rescue helicopter.
Armenia-Partenkirchen - On Sunday, around noon, North German holidaymakers reported to the local police inspectorate that their motorhome was blocked in the parking lot at the Olympic Ski Stadium by a parked off-road vehicle. After a long wait, the driver, a 42-year-old woman from the Stuttgart area, finally returned. After a short conversation, the accused wanted to leave the parking lot with her vehicle. However, the previously parked man wanted to clarify the situation in the presence of the police and positioned himself in front of the woman's vehicle. This finally drove off, which forced the holidaymaker to jump to the side. After a short search, the accused was stopped with the support of the Federal Police in the Oberau area. An investigation was initiated against the lady on suspicion of various crimes. Witnesses of the situation are asked to report to the Garmisch-Partenkirchen police (08821/9170).
Drunk sits with chair, table and beer in the middle of the main road
Kaltenbrunn - And there was that, too: On Friday, May 26, at around 17:20 p.m., the Garmisch-Partenkirchen police station received several emergency calls about a heavily intoxicated resident who had sat down with a chair and table on the federal highway 2 and drank beer there calmly. The drunk obviously accepted the resulting danger situation for himself and other road users. The man from the county town insulted passing motorists and showed them his middle finger. The 45-year-old was taken into custody by police officers and taken to the PI's sobering cell. What did he want to achieve with the drinking bout in the middle of the main road? On social networks, many were amused by this action. This does not remain without repercussions: The man is being investigated for dangerous interference with road traffic and for insult. Kb
