Frankenthal (dpa / lrs) - A 26-year-old motorist raced away from the police on Bundesstraße 9 at more than 180 kilometers per hour.
80 km / h was allowed.
He was stopped and arrested after a chase, the police said on Saturday.
The officers noticed that he had a "clear smell of alcohol" and found a half-full beer bottle, brass knuckles and a blank gun in the car.
However, the man did not have a valid driver's license.
He is now also being investigated for violations of the Weapons Act.
The high-powered black car was noticed by a patrol on Saturday afternoon at the level of the Oggersheim motorway junction, as it was called.
When he saw the police car approaching from behind, the driver switched to the left lane and suddenly accelerated sharply.
The police finally caught up with him.
Then the man managed to escape again.
Only at Frankenthal could the police stop the driver.
