Cops Nab Fugitive Man Driving Without a License in Harrislee, Germany
Law enforcement authorities apprehend man sought by federal warrant - Authorities apprehended an individual on charges of outstanding warrant.
Here's the skinny: a 41-year-old chap, wanted for daring to drive without a license and slapped with a fine, was collared by the Fedheads (that's what the cool kids call 'em) upon crossing the border from Denmark into Germany at Harrislee, near Flensburg. The arrest went down on Saturday, during the reinstated border checks, as the Feds announced today.
You see, this fellow had skipped town in 2023 after being found guilty of intentionally evading a driver's license. He decided to hit the road (literally) without shelling out the 800 euros he owed. The cops soon caught wind of his shenanigans, but they couldn't get their hands on him... until now.
Upon apprehending him, the by-the-books bureaucrats revealed that despite his daredevil stunts, the fugitive was able to cough up the cash for his initial offense. This spared him the 20-day prison sentence he'd have faced otherwise. However, a new legal proceeding has since been launched against him. Bummer for that dude, he'll have to ditch the wheels and hoof it for a while.
