Curious Incident: Early Friday morning, an intoxicated man attempted to ride onto the Nordbrücke in Vienna-Floridsdorf with a stolen children's bicycle, which is part of the Danube Riverbank Motorway (A22).

According to a police spokeswoman, the 38-year-old was overcome by fatigue on the ramp near the Shopping City Nord, so he lay down to sleep on the grassy area next to the ramp. A witness noticed this and alerted the police around 7:00 AM.

The officers from the Ziegelofenweg station woke up the Polish citizen lying next to the guardrail. He was uninjured but heavily intoxicated with a blood alcohol level of 2.74. According to the spokeswoman, he stated that he had arrived at the ramp around 5:00 AM or 5:30 AM. He no longer knew why he ended up there or where he had stolen the bicycle from. The emergency services took him to a hospital. The police secured the bicycle.

The 38-year-old had been expelled from Austria a few days earlier. He is known to the authorities for property offenses and was reported for theft, violations of traffic regulations, and under the Aliens Police Act.
