15-year-old causes accident and escapes with stolen goods in Lichtenberg!
An accident occurred in Berlin-Lichtenberg on the night of October 4, 2025 when a 15-year-old collided with a VW in a Mercedes. The incident occurred on Wotanstrasse around 10:25 p.m. The young driver was traveling towards Gotlindestrasse when he climbed on Rüdigerstrasse with the right of a 27-year-old who drove towards Schottstrasse.
After the collision, the Mercedes came to a standstill in the intersection. The 15-year-old then drove his VW against a house wall and, together with his 33-year-old passenger, tried to flee from the scene of the accident. In the meantime, two men aged 24 and 30, who had driven behind the Mercedes, held the two until the police arrived. The 27-year-old driver of the Mercedes suffered arm injuries due to the accident, and his 23-year-old passenger also complained of headache and dizziness. Both were taken to the hospital.
Covering of thiefs
During the subsequent search of the 15-year-old's vehicle, which took place at the order of a public prosecutor, the police found several handbags, wallets, cell phones and bank cards. Some of the bank cards have already been assigned. There is a suspicion that the other objects could also come from crimes. The entire prey and the vehicle were secured. The 15-year-old was brought to a recording facility for minors after the police measures. His passenger, on the other hand, was released at the scene of the accident.
The criminal police are now investigating suspicion of theft and other crimes. These incidents also highlight the general crime in Berlin, which has been the focus of the public for years. As the statistics of traffic accidents show, regular exchange and analysis of data is important in order to derive measures in legislation and traffic education. Such data should help increase the security in road traffic and to better understand the circumstances of accidents, as the Statistics Berlin-Brandenburg emphasizes.
The investigation continues to clarify the background of the accident and origin of the objects found. Another chapter in the increasingly complex crime situation of the city is thus opened.
