Hashish confiscated: Elderly man apprehended after discovery of multiple kilograms.
In a significant development, the Lippe Police, in collaboration with the main customs office in Bielefeld, seized a large quantity of narcotics on Tuesday, December 3, 2024. The seizure took place around 7:30 PM.
During a routine check near Holzhausen-Externsteine, Lippe's deployment forces located a 69-year-old man without a fixed address. The man was temporarily arrested following the check.
Upon searching the vehicle, the service dog discovered a suitcase containing approximately 8 kilograms of hashish in the trunk. The seized narcotics were secured immediately.
The high-speed chase was initiated due to the man being supposed to be checked during border controls. However, the chase was called off due to concerns for safety.
In a subsequent hearing on Wednesday (04.12.2024), a judge ordered the 69-year-old to be remanded in custody. The investigations into the case are ongoing.
It's worth noting that the man was previously involved in a high-speed chase with the federal police in the Kleve area. For further information, the Lippe Police Press Office can be contacted at 05231 / 609 - 5050, fax: 05231 / 609-5095, email: [email protected], and online at lippe.polizei.nrw.de.
A knife was also found in the possession of the 69-year-old man. The investigations are ongoing to determine the circumstances surrounding the discovery of the weapon.
