Police arrest 44-year-old after drug test on stolen E-scooter
Cannabis and methamphetamines were detected, with blood sampling ordered.
A 44-year-old man was stopped on an E-scooter in Eisenach shortly after 2 a.m., after police said a drug test came back positive for cannabis and methamphetamines.
At the same time, officers also found the E-scooter was uninsured and reported to have been stolen from the city centre earlier. Because of the suspected drug-impaired driving, a blood sample was ordered.
Police initiated criminal proceedings for driving under the influence of intoxicating substances. Further charges were also filed over the theft of the E-scooter and for violating Germany’s compulsory motor insurance rules.
The case is now in the hands of investigators, with charges expected to follow.
