Two small children were injured on Saturday followingnoon when a smuggler fled from the police in Innerschwand (Vöcklabruck district). The two minors were together with other people in a car with the 30-year-old at the wheel. On the Westautobahn (A1) in the direction of Salzburg, the police wanted to stop him for speeding. He continued to accelerate and later lost control of the car, police reported.
The 30-year-old from Azerbaijan tried to escape via an area of the highway that was cordoned off due to a construction site. He raced at high speed over a partly gravel road. This caused the car to skid and crash into a barrier. The man jumped out of the car and initially ran away over a steep embankment. After a short search, police officers caught the fugitive 30-year-old on Oberwanger Landesstrasse. They took him to the Wels police detention center.
A total of six people with Turkish citizenship – including the two children – got out of the vehicle. All inmates complained of pain, which is why they were taken to Vöcklabruck Hospital.
