Police stop pair who threw rubbish from car

Police stopped a driver and passenger after seeing them throw a large rubbish bag from their car onto a road in Carinthia on Sunday morning, ORF reported. The bag’s contents spilled across the road.

The patrol was travelling towards Bad Kleinkirchheim on St Oswalder Road (L13) at about 9.40am when officers saw the pair discard the roughly 30-litre bag. They stopped the car and watched as the 29-year-old driver and his 25-year-old passenger, both from Vienna, collected the rubbish and put it in a waste container.

Both admitted to disposing of the rubbish illegally and will be reported to the district authority.
