Last weekend, a citizen’s arrest of an intoxicated driver took place in the Gromadka municipality. Staff Sergeant Anna Kublik-Rościszewska, press officer of the County Police Headquarters: – Bolesławiec police officers received a report that, on the premises of a fuel station, a truck had hit another truck. It turned out that the driver responsible for the collision was intoxicated, so the injured party prevented him from driving any further and called a patrol to the scene.
