Baden-Württemberg: Man flees from the police with a self-made e-bike

Oppenweiler (dpa / lsw) - A man fled from the police in the Rems-Murr district with a self-made e-bike and at high speed. A police spokesman said on Friday that a patrol wanted to check the man in a 30 zone in Oppenweiler. The man ignored this and drove away at an estimated speed of up to 70 kilometers per hour.

According to the information, the cyclist initially escaped in the incident that happened some time ago. A police officer recognized the bike in Backnang on Wednesday and stopped the 42-year-old. According to the investigators, it turned out that the e-bike was a homemade product that was powered electrically and without pedaling. Since the man could not show an operating license and no insurance cover, the officials secured the bike. It was also suspected that the man was under the influence of drugs.
