At 8:05 a.m., a police patrol was conducting checks in the Schulstraße area as part of a school safety operation. During the operation, officers noticed a black car with French license plates traveling eastbound on Salzburger Straße. After a brief pursuit, the vehicle was stopped and subjected to a driver and vehicle check.
No child seats
The police officers determined that there were a total of six people in the car. In addition to the 33-year-old driver and the 21-year-old passenger, there were also two minor children, aged four and eight, as well as two other people—a 12-year-old girl and the 35-year-old woman—in the vehicle.
Neither of the two children was wearing a seatbelt, nor were they secured in a suitable child restraint. The technical inspection of the vehicle revealed no issues.
An arrest warrant, a report
However, during the subsequent check of the passengers and the driver, a search within the framework of international law enforcement led to two hits in the Schengen Information System (SIS): the driver (33) and the 35-year-old woman appeared in the system. Regarding the 33-year-old driver, a SIS hit report containing the necessary information was forwarded to the responsible SIRENE office. For the 35-year-old woman, the search query revealed a European arrest warrant for human trafficking in France. The woman was subsequently arrested and taken to the Dragonerstraße police station.

By order of the Wels Public Prosecutor’s Office, the 35-year-old woman was transferred to the Wels Correctional Facility. Regarding the administrative violations, the driver was required to post several security deposits and was issued a summary citation.
