Alsbach-Hähnlein / Darmstadt (dpa) - An internationally wanted murderer went into the network on a police patrol in southern Hesse - during a traffic control.
The officers arrested the 57-year-old.
According to a spokesman for the Darmstadt police force in Poland, he has been sentenced to 25 years in prison.
Why the man was at large and how he got to Germany was initially unclear according to Thursday's information.
A civil patrol became aware of the man's car on Tuesday at a rest stop on Autobahn 5 near Alsbach-Hähnlein because a forged TÜV sticker was attached to it.
The 57-year-old slept in the car.
During his examination, the officers found that he was on the wanted list.
The man has to serve almost ten years from his original sentence.
