Dual drug offences

October 10, 2014 By

A 22-year-old man from Oberursel visited the local police station at around 6.20pm on Wednesday, 8th October in a Volkswagen car.  He went there with the intent to file charges against someone.  But during the course of the conversation with the officers, they had reason to believe that he was under the influence of drugs.  Blood and urine samples were taken and an investigation was launched.

Afterwards the man asked his brother to come and collect him from the police station.  But when his brother arrived in a Fiat car at around 8.10pm, he apparently also showed signs of having taken drugs.  He too was required to give samples and may also face charges himself.

Witness sought after theft at station

July 14, 2014 By

Police are looking for a witness to a theft that took place in the early hours of Sunday morning at Oberursel’s main station.

Between 5.20am and 5.45am on 13th July, 2014, a 20-year-old had his wallet stolen out of his pocket after he fell asleep on a bench.  The two men also tried to take his mobile phone as well, but were disturbed when the S-Bahn entered the station and the man woke up.

During the theft the men were observed by a witness, who thought at first that they were friends with the man on the bench, and it was only after they went separate ways that she realised that she was wrong and told the man he had been robbed.

Detectives in Bad Homburg would like to talk to her and ask that she calls 06172 1200 to contact them.
