Man repeatedly gets behind the wheel without a driver's license

A civilian patrol of the police was able to stop a 34-year-old man from Brüggen without a valid driving license during a general traffic check. The man from Brüggen was on his way on Boerholzer Straße in Bracht on Tuesday around 2:30 pm when the officers stopped him.
He immediately admitted that he did not have a valid driving license. Upon inquiry, it turned out that he had been driving without a license several times before. During the inspection of the car, it was also found that the vehicle had false license plates. A voluntarily conducted drug preliminary test was also positive, which is why a blood sample was taken from the man from Brüggen. The response team secured the car. Due to the history, the car could be permanently taken away from the 34-year-old. The man from Brüggen now has to answer for, among other things, suspicion of license plate abuse, drunk driving, and driving without a license. The investigation is ongoing. /jk (55)
