Tonight (Friday to Saturday), officers from the Neu-Ulm police station identified several road users who were under the influence of alcohol and drugs.

In the first case, officers from the Neu-Ulm police station checked the driver of an e-scooter. The 19-year-old driver was found to have drug-related abnormalities. When asked, he stated that he had recently consumed marijuana.

Later in the evening, a car driver was stopped by another patrol crew. Since he also showed drug-related abnormalities, a rapid drug test was carried out, which came back positive for methamphetamine, THC and amphetamine.

A similar fate befell another car driver, whose rapid drug test reacted positively to THC. During the night, officers at the Neu-Ulm police station also received a report about a driver swerving in a zigzag pattern, who was subjected to a traffic check on Leipheimer Strasse.

Since the car driver also had a strong smell of alcohol, a breathalyzer test was carried out. The test showed a value of around 1.5 per mille, thus confirming the corresponding perception.

A blood sample had to be taken from all four male road users and the sample taken accordingly. After the procedure was completed, the drivers were able to leave the station, but had to walk home.

It was thanks to the initiative of one of the waitresses that she was able to get her money back.

The incident occurred on Saturday evening shortly before 10 p.m. at the Ulm Wine Festival. A group of people who were big drinkers had made extensive use of the festival’s offerings and had also paid a considerable sum to the waitress. Apparently, the group was still thirsty after paying their bill and ordered more drinks. When the 18-year-old waitress later wanted to collect the additional order, her guests had suddenly disappeared. She promptly began investigating the alleged dine-and-drink skippers and questioned guests sitting nearby. It was quickly established that the group had left in the direction of the train station to catch a train to Bad Saulgau. The waitress promptly went from Münsterplatz to the train station on platform 6. There she met her guests again. After being reminded of the matter, it was like scales fell from their eyes: their bill had not been paid. In the presence of a patrol from the Ulm-Mitte police station, they assured that they had indeed forgotten to pay their debts in the haze of wine. Considering the amount of total consumption, this was actually believable. The waitress immediately received the outstanding 66 euros, along with a generous tip. After everyone was satisfied, the patrol from the Ulm-Mitte police station left without further investigation.
