A teenager "on cocaine" fled from the police in a car with six friends on Sunday night - a breakneck chase across the Innviertel region ensued. It ended in the driveway of Helga Feichtenschlager. She spoke to the "Krone" newspaper about the dramatic moments right outside her front door.

"The inspector said: Helga, don't go down, there's going to be a terrible bang. And there was" - Helga Feichtenschlager from St. Johann am Walde remembers how a car with seven young occupants was stopped on her doorstep at around 3.30 am. After 40 minutes and almost 30 kilometers of sometimes breakneck driving across the Braunau district.
