Bottrop makes headlines. - A 25-year-old man evades law enforcement while driving an Audi RS6.

At 1:15 a.m., authorities reported a 25-year-old man from Bottrop on Prosperstrasse heading towards the city center. At 2 a.m., cops saw the car in a parking lot on Gildestraße. When the officer's presence was noticed by the driver, he sped away in his Audi toward Zunftstraße.

In the Bottrop district, the man attempted to evade the police by racing at top speed. They eventually found the car abandoned on Corinthweg, but the driver was nowhere to be found. He was eventually caught in the Feuerbachstraße area soon after.

Due to signs that the guy was under the influence of intoxicants, he was taken to the police station in Bottrop where they took his blood sample. As he didn't have a proper driver's license, the cops filed a report for illegal street racing.

Meanwhile, another incident happened in the Rheinlandstraße area: an Audi RS5 sped past a police car, turning sharply into Germaniastraße and driving at high speed towards Horster Straße. It crossed a red-light intersection there, speeding into Scharnhölzstraße. Initially, the police lost sight of the Audi, but they later found it crashed into a house wall at the intersection of Rheinlandstraße and Kardinal-Hengsbach-Straße - empty.

Shortly after this, a 24-year-old man from Bottrop arrived at the scene. Whether he was involved in the accident is still being investigated. The cops seized the Bottrop guy's car and driver's license. The damaged vehicle was appraised to be worth approximately €90,000, while the house suffered around €5,000 in damages. No injuries have been reported.

It's unclear if there's a connection between the two incidents. The police investigation continues.
