On March 12, a Lithuanian national was arrested by the Polish border guard near the Lithuanian border while driving a Porsche with Lithuanian license plates. The vehicle was stopped for an inspection, and the 42-year-old driver presented a Lithuanian registration certificate; however, the details did not match the car’s information.

Further checks revealed that the Porsche had been reported stolen in Germany just two days prior, on March 10. The vehicle, a 2018 model valued at approximately 130,000 Polish zlotys (around 30,530 euros), was seized along with the driver, who is now facing legal repercussions.

The incident highlights ongoing issues with vehicle theft and cross-border crime in Europe, prompting local police to conduct further investigations into the case. The apprehension of the suspect not only reflects the vigilance of Polish border authorities but also raises concerns about the safety and security of stolen vehicles being trafficked between countries in the region.
