72-year-old arrested in the track area: Federal police search successful!
On the evening of September 28, 2022, the federal police became aware of a dangerous situation in the track area of the railway line between Sarnau and Goßfelden. At 7:45 p.m., the police received a report about a person who was unlawfully on the track area. The Giessen Federal Police Station then mobilized a patrol with special rights of way and rights of way to assess the situation and act quickly. The operation was carried out quickly because the dangers posed by such actions should not be underestimated.
On site, officers encountered a 72-year-old man who had apparently entered the tracks. When he was checked, it came to light that there was an arrest warrant against him. This arrest warrant concerned a prison sentence of 22 days for obtaining benefits by fraud. The circumstances of the arrest not only raise questions about the man's personal situation, but also highlight the risks associated with entering railway tracks.
Arrest and release
After the man was brought to the police station, he had the opportunity to avoid his fine by paying 440 euros. This amount was paid shortly afterwards, allowing the 72-year-old to be released at around 9:30 p.m. The Federal Police once again pointed out that entering railway tracks is both life-threatening and a punishable offence. In an official statement, officials stressed the need to avoid such dangerous acts as they can be dangerous not only for the perpetrator but also for other rail users.
This evening's incidents illustrate how important it is to take rail safety seriously. The Federal Police appeals to the public not to enter the railway tracks in order not to endanger themselves or others. In addition, it was discussed that the man's behavior could have serious consequences in light of an existing arrest warrant. It remains to be seen how his situation will develop further.
