An 18-year-old, under the influence of drugs, fled from the police in his car on Monday in the Amstetten district.

According to the executive, the young man from Mostviertel was driving at high speed and crashed his car into a tree. After a preliminary arrest, the Lower Austrian - who does not have a valid driving license - will be reported to the St. Pölten public prosecutor's office and the district administration.

The 18-Year-Old Remained Uninjured

The 18-year-old had evaded a stop in Amstetten shortly after 9.00 a.m. on Monday. Pursued by the police, the driver lost control of his vehicle in Seitenstetten (Amstetten district). The car came off the B122 and hit a tree, but the 18-year-old remained uninjured.

Previously, the driver is said to have tried to force the police patrol off the road in Aschbach-Markt (also in the Amstetten district). Other road users may also have been endangered. Potential victims have been asked to contact the Oed police station (Tel.: 059133-3109).
