Drink driver flees motorway crash scene

Police gave chase on the occupants of a car which crashed on the A4 on Monday night.

According to reports, a motorist collided head-on with barriers on the motorway close to the Esch-Lallange exit at around 10.30pm.

Before police arrived, however, two occupants fled the scene. Witness reports helped officers to trace the two. One was found in rue de Luxembourg and another not far from the crash site. A breathalyser test revealed the driver was over the legal alcohol limit.

Meanwhile, a collision on a country road on Tuesday morning brought down a road sign.

The accident occurred between Graulinster and Beidweiler on the N14 at around 8.30am where emergency services report that a motorist lost control on a bend.

The vehicle struck a lamp post bringing down a sign and leaving an impressive dent in the side of the car. The driver was taken to hospital as a precaution.
