On Friday morning around 1 am, a police patrol noticed a car driving with excessive speed on the A1 motorway.

Police officers made clear signs for the driver to stop with their siren, but the driver proceeded to ignore these. Thus, the police decided to chase the automobilist before losing him from sight shortly afterwards.

A second partol was then able to find the car around Munsbach. They took up the chase but the speeder ended up in an accident in Schuttrange. Neither passenger was injured.

Upon inspection the driver turned out to be under the influence of alcohol and was unable to show his driver’s licence. The car was immobilised and the driver was arrested.
