Young driver rests in radio car: two police officers injured!

In the night of June 7, 2025, the police were challenging in Berlin-Tiergarten. As the Berlin police , a young driver tried to avoid a traffic control. At 2:45 a.m., a radio car crew in Kurfürstenstraße corner Genthiner Straße became aware of an Audi. The driver, who drove quite ruthlessly despite his youth, ignored the stop and accelerated strongly. He disregarded several red traffic lights and fled towards Potsdamer Strasse.

The radio car crew took up the persecution and was able to block the Audi's escape route on Potsdamer Strasse using another radio car. However, the driver of the Audi could not be broken and drove against the standing radio car unchecked. During the collision, the police vehicle was damaged so that it was no longer ready to drive. After the accident, the 17-year-old driver and his three occupants fled towards Lützowstrasse on foot. The young driver could finally be arrested nearby.
