North Rhine-Westphalia: Curious police tour with two runaway children

Gressenich (dpa / lnw) - Two escaped siblings aged three and five kept the police in Gressenich near Aachen on their toes. A bus driver noticed the children on a street on Sunday morning, the police said. The man stopped and called the police. Since it was initially not clear where "the two three-cheese-high" belonged, the five-year-old offered herself to the two police officers "as a scout" who knew the way.

After a ride in a patrol car, a longer walk followed in the "strange caravan" to Stolberg, the police reported. Ultimately, the journey paid off: the girl unerringly led everyone to her aunt's apartment. "Because the cousin of the same age lived there and after all he had a much more extensive game collection than you can offer yourself...!", It said in the police statement. The children's mother and grandmother - who live only 200 meters from the first stop in Gressenich - finally happily welcomed the two children.
