A series of crimes across the Wetterau district has kept police busy this week. In Butzbach, a 27-year-old electric scooter rider faces multiple charges after being stopped for traffic violations. Meanwhile, break-ins in Karben, Friedberg, and Rodenbach have left authorities searching for suspects and witnesses.
On November 13, 2025, police in Butzbach pulled over an electric scooter rider for missing an insurance license plate. The 27-year-old man, whose name has not been released, was suspected of driving under the influence of narcotics. Officers later confirmed he had exceeded the electric scooter speed limit and admitted to consuming cannabis before riding. He was also wearing a motorcycle helmet, reportedly due to a previous high-speed crash. The man now faces investigations for driving without a license, impaired driving, and violating compulsory insurance laws.
The 27-year-old electric scooter rider in Butzbach could face serious penalties if convicted of the charges against him. In the meantime, investigators continue to pursue leads in the Karben, Friedberg, and Rodenbach break-ins. Anyone with information is urged to contact local authorities.
