Incident with false police officers
In parallel to this incident, another, worrying case was recently reported in the region. A 45-year-old Salzburger was a police officer on July 2 in Lamprechtshausen and carried out traffic controls in its own. He stopped seven moped drivers and showed himself with a business card. He also carried a knife and photographed the admission certificates and the moped cards of the young people. Although he threatened with advertisements, he did not impose any penalties. This suspicion was pursued when a teenager classified the behavior as suspicious and collected the necessary information. The police were able to identify the man based on his license plate, and he is reported on the basis of several offenses, such as [SN.AT] (https://www.s.at/salzburg/chronik/falscher-polizist-polate-in-flachgau- same-mopedlenker-106371382).
