A Mercedes-AMG driver rammed police in Dortmund on Wednesday, injuring an officer while fleeing through a Baumarkt parking lot. The chase began when the driver ran a red light and accelerated to about 160 km/h.
Police response
Multiple police cars secured the exit as armed officers approached the white vehicle. A police helicopter searched the city at night, and the Mercedes was later found uninsured.
Injured officer
The injured police officer was taken to a Dortmund hospital by ambulance. Police do not consider this an attempted murder, only a body injury.
Summer implications
Borussia Dortmund sits 2nd in the Bundesliga with 64 points, 19 wins and 7 draws from 29 games, and is 12 points behind Bayern München. The club is missing Nico Schlotterbeck, Carney Chukwuemeka and Ramy Bensebaini due to injury.
