Burglars fail in Treffurt – witnesses wanted!
A real commotion has occurred in the region in the last few days, where several incidents have kept the police on tenterhooks. Let's take a closer look at the current situation.
On August 10, 2025, a 37-year-old man who was driving a Mazda during a motorcade was caught without a valid driver's license. Not only did he receive an investigation for driving without a license, but he was also immediately banned from continuing to drive. Such checks are important to ensure road safety and show that the police continue to take rigorous action against unlicensed drivers.
Another incident also occurred on August 10, when police stopped a 43-year-old motorcyclist on Gothaer Straße in Wutha-Farnroda. The driver of a Husqvarna was not only driving without a license plate, his motorcycle was also not insured. To make matters worse, the man was suspected of driving under the influence of drugs because a preliminary drug test reacted positively to amphetamine and methamphetamine. This shows once again how important drug tests are in road traffic, as drogentest.info shows. The driver concerned must now expect an investigation because he violated the compulsory insurance law and also drove without a valid driving license.
The dangers of drug use behind the wheel
The consumption of drugs is not only harmful to health, but also endangers the safety of all road users. According to ADAC, the influence of substances such as cannabis, cocaine or heroin can severely impair attention and the ability to react. Drug driving carries drastic penalties, ranging from fines to imprisonment. A positive drug test can result in a fine of 500 euros and two points on the driving fitness register.
As part of traffic controls, drug tests can also be carried out without specific suspicion, which is clear from case law in this area. Positive results not only lead to criminal proceedings, but also to further legal consequences, as drogentest.info further explains. If you are unsure about dealing with drug tests, you are advised to seek legal advice. The police are acting responsibly and are initiating investigations to make the streets safer.
Burglaries and other crimes
On August 5, 2025, there was an attempted break-in at a butcher shop on Gartenstrasse in Treffurt. However, the perpetrators were unable to break into the building, leaving the damage in the low three-digit range. The police have initiated an investigation into attempted particularly serious theft and are looking for witnesses who can provide information on 03691 - 261124.
These incidents show once again how important it is to be vigilant in the region and to support the police if there are suspicions or observations. Only together can safety on the roads and in our cities be maintained.
