Drunk driving

(jd) As part of a patrol, officers from the Herford district police department noticed a pedelec rider on Berliner Straße on Friday (22.11) at 5.00 pm. The previously unknown man was crossing a pedestrian traffic light on his pedelec, which showed a red light for him. The person apparently had problems keeping his balance. When the officers checked the man, a 35-year-old from Herford, they noticed clear signs of alcohol consumption. A breath alcohol test carried out on the spot was clearly positive. He was taken to the Herford police station to have a blood sample taken. After the police measures were completed, the man from Herford was released on the spot.
