Suspect held for 24 hours after allegedly fleeing the scene.
Police in Câmpulung Moldovenesc kept a 53-year-old man in custody for 24 hours after a crash where his breath test showed 1.25 mg/l alcohol.
The incident happened on Saturday, 10 October 2026, around 20.20, on Calea Bucovinei. Police say the man drove a Volkswagen and caused an accident that resulted in material damage.
Instead of staying at the scene, he allegedly continued driving toward strada Trandafirilor.
At 20.26, authorities in Câmpulung Moldovenesc were alerted through 112. The caller said the driver involved might be intoxicated. A traffic unit reached the area and identified the driver about 200 meters from where the accident occurred.
The suspect was tested with an etilometru, which confirmed police suspicions. The device recorded 1.25 mg/l of pure alcohol in his exhaled air.
He was taken to Spitalul Municipal Câmpulung Moldovenesc, where, with written consent, two blood samples were collected one hour apart to determine his blood alcohol level.
Police continued the criminal case and the man, identified as Vasile Slusarciuc, became a suspect for driving under the influence of alcohol or other substances.
On Sunday, 11 October 2026, police ordered his detention for 24 hours. He was placed in the Center for Arrest and Preventive Detention of the Suceava County Police Inspectorate as investigations continue.
Investigations are ongoing to establish all the circumstances of the road accident.
