E-Scooter rider under drugs - Car driver with fake driving license

On Thursday afternoon around 3 p. m.
, the police checked the driver of an e-scooter on Rahmedestraße. The 45-year-old man from Altena showed signs of drug use. A preliminary test was positive. He was taken to the police station in Lüdenscheid, where a doctor took blood samples. The police officers prohibited further driving.

Due to a defective low beam, a police patrol checked a car on Hagener Straße shortly after 8 p. on Thursday. The driver, a 37-year-old Iraqi, presented a Ukrainian driver's license. There were several discrepancies on the license itself. A check with a document verification device revealed further indications of a complete forgery. The police officers seized the driver's license, prohibited the operation of motor vehicles and filed reports against the driver for forgery of documents and driving without a license, as well as against the owner of the car for allowing driving without a license.
