Woman Recorded With 5.25‰ Breath-Alcohol Level in Osnabrück

Called life-threatening by police and hospital staff, the reading prompted immediate hospital admission and close monitoring.

Overview

  • Officers found a 26-year-old woman lying in the street on Ickerweg and were told she had come from Rheine and been at a swimming pool.
  • A police-administered breath-alcohol test produced a value of 5.25‰, which responders described as a life-threatening level.
  • Medical staff admitted the woman to an Osnabrück hospital and kept her under tight observation while officers reported their astonishment at her steady condition.
  • The account and measurement come from a Polizei Osnabrück report relayed by kreiszeitung.de, and officials called the case unusually notable for the force.
  • Key details remain unreported: there is no public toxicology confirmation beyond the breath test, no identified cause of the intoxication, and no published update on her longer-term condition or any legal action.
