Search for witnesses after hit-and-run accident
After a hit-and-run accident on Sunday between 10:15 a.m. and 12:15 p.m. in the parking lot of the thermal baths on Bahnhofstrasse, the police are investigating and are asking for information. An unknown driver hit a white Opel Corsa and then fled without worrying about the property damage, which amounted to around 2,500 euros. Traces of paint suggest that the person who caused the accident was driving a red car. Investigators at the Überlingen police station are accepting information from any witnesses on 07551/804-0.
Überlingen
Crashed into a tree
A 46-year-old driver crashed his car into a tree between Tüfingen and Überlingen shortly before 6 p.m. on Monday. The man was driving on the L 200a towards Überlingen when he veered off the road to the right in a left-hand bend in the rain and was probably driving at an inappropriate speed. He first drove through a toad protection fence and then collided with the tree. Because he was apparently not wearing a seatbelt, he hit his head on the windshield and suffered minor injuries. His car was declared a total write-off, estimated at around 20,000 euros. It had to be towed away. At the fence, the cost is estimated at around 2,000 euros. Because a breathalyzer test showed the 46-year-old had a blood alcohol level of just under 0.4 per mille, the man had to give a blood sample at a clinic. The officers confiscated his driver’s license on the spot. In addition to the police and the emergency services, the volunteer fire brigade was also at the scene of the accident to deal with leaking operating fluids.
Überlingen
Motorcycle parts stolen
Between Sunday morning and Monday morning, unknown persons stole the exhaust systems and various fairing parts from two Ducati motorcycles that were parked on a trailer at the Spitalweiher hiking car park in the area of the L 200.

Heiligenberg
Messenger scam
At the end of last week, a 65-year-old man fell for a scam and transferred several thousand euros. He was contacted via WhatsApp by an unknown person who claimed to be his son. The man said that his mobile phone had fallen into the toilet and that he was therefore contacting him using a new number. Because of the defective device, he could not make any urgent transfers and asked for help. Believing that he was advancing the money to his son at short notice, the victim transferred several thousand euros to various accounts. It was not until Sunday, when he had contact with his real son, that the fraud was discovered and the 65-year-old reported the incident to his bank and filed a complaint with the police. Information on the subject of messenger fraud can be found online on the police crime prevention website at https://www.polizei-beratung.de/themen-und-tipps/betrug/messenger/
