(jd) A 46-year-old man from Kirchlengern was riding his bicycle on Lübbecker Straße in the direction of the B239 at 9 p.m. on Friday (9 August). For an initially unexplained reason, he rode his bike against the kerb there and lost control of his bike. He fell over the handlebars onto the road and sustained minor injuries. Witnesses who saw the accident tended to the injured man and called the emergency services. The police officers who arrived noticed clear signs of alcohol consumption in the man, so a blood sample was taken at a nearby hospital, where the 46-year-old was taken by ambulance.
