Chaos at the wine autumn: police respond to several crimes!

Last Saturday evening, at the wine autumn in Abtswind, the Kitzingen police were called upon several times. First, a 23-year-old drew attention when he gained entry to a residential building near the festival site with the vile intention of urinating. The residents didn't let this go and asked the man to leave the house. While he was complying with this request, he stole someone else's bicycle and rode it across the wine festival grounds towards the town center. Security personnel quickly had him in their sights and informed the police, who found the suspect in the festival tent and stopped him. The stolen bike was located in nearby bushes and returned to its rightful owner. The 23-year-old is now facing investigations for theft and unauthorized use of a bicycle, as mainpost.de reports.

A 39-year-old also appeared at the festival site who did not want to follow the organizer's instructions. After he was banned from entering the premises, he repeatedly tried to enter the premises wearing different items of clothing. However, the security service did not let him through and expelled him from the premises again. The police also eventually issued an expulsion and filed a complaint for trespassing. Of course, such incidents spoil the festive mood!

Accidents caused by drunk driving

The incidents in Abtswind were joined by a worrying incident around midnight when a resident called emergency services after a VW drove into a ditch. The 17-year-old, who was apparently behind the wheel without a driver's license, got out and left the vehicle to her 18-year-old companion. Both were drunk; Breath alcohol tests showed over 1.60 per mille - a clear case of drunk driving. The circumstances under which the 17-year-old is now being held responsible for driving without a license and being drunk are serious. Your companion, who had to surrender his driver's license, will also be held accountable for drunk driving, which also has legal consequences. As jhb.legal explains in detail, an alcohol consumption of 0.5 per mille or more can have serious consequences such as fines and the revocation of your driving license.

Drunk driving is one of the most common traffic offenses in Germany. If you have a blood alcohol level of 1.1 or more, you are considered completely unfit to drive, and in the event of an accident you can even face serious charges such as bodily harm or negligent homicide. Those affected often lose out when it comes to the legal consequences: fines are calculated in daily rates, and the driving license can be revoked for six months to five years, depending on the seriousness of the offense.

Festivities and security

On occasions such as the wine autumn in Abtswind, organizers and security forces must always be on alert to avoid such unpleasant incidents. Despite the unpleasant events, the festival was still well attended and most participants seemed to have a great time.

In summary, it is clear that at festivals it is always important to pay attention to your own safety and that of those around you. Visitors in a good mood should always ensure a carefree and safe evening in order to be able to fully enjoy the joy of events such as the wine autumn.
