Drug dealers are targeted by the police after traffic accident in Eislingen
In a worrying wave of traffic accidents caused by careless drivers, the recent incident in Eislingen is a worrying example. On Thursday, August 9, 2024, a serious accident occurred around 6 p.m., which left three vehicles and considerable environmental damage of around 38,000 euros.
injuries and accidents
An 80-year-old man was traveling with his VW in Göppinger Straße towards Göppingen and stopped at a traffic light when the accident began. Behind him was a 68-year-old driver in a Mercedes. A significantly younger driver, 23 years old, apparently noticed too late that the vehicles were standing in front of him and drove onto the Mercedes with his Audi SUV. The impact was so violent that the Mercedes was pushed to the rear of the VW. Fortunately, the VW driver and the alleged person who caused the accident remained unharmed, but the 68-year-old and a passenger suffered minor injuries.
First indications of drug trafficking
The Eislingen police estimated the total damage to 38,000 euros and ordered the towing of the Audis. During the accident, the officials noticed that the young driver threw a cigarette box away, which attracted her attention. During a subsequent search, the police not only found white powder in bags, but also utensils for drug use in the trunk of the vehicle and a considerable amount of cash. These finds laid on the first assumptions about a possibly existing drug trade.
Investigations continue
As a result, further investigative measures were carried out in consultation with the public prosecutor's office at the 23-year-old's living address. Additional evidence could be ensured and confiscated. Despite the drug finds, the police found that the driver was not under the influence of drugs at the time of the accident. After completing the police measures, the young man was released, but the investigation continues.The effects on the community
This incident not only raised questions about individual misconduct, but also raised awareness of the security in road traffic. The increasing accidents in connection with drug abuse are alarming and lag a light on the need for more conscious driving. It will be crucial to analyze the causes of such incidents and take measures to prevent future accidents.
