The incident occurred on Wednesday, February 9, at approximately 8:00 a.m. on Modłowa Street. Two cars collided there. One person was injured. A medical emergency team attended to the person. (Fortunately, the injuries were not serious).
As it turns out, causing the collision itself is not the perpetrator’s biggest problem—he fled the scene. The driver of the Audi Q7 is being pursued because he failed to stop for a traffic check in Germany.
The fugitive managed to reach Bolesławiec County. In our city, he caused two collisions, including the one on Modłowa Street. (He also tore off someone’s mirror).
The chase is ongoing.
