IN LOVE WITH A MAN IN UNIFORM - A woman who was stopped after nearly running over two people in her car said she couldn't concentrate because she was head over heels in love with an elusive police officer. A woman driver who almost ran over a pedestrian, narrowly avoided hitting a cyclist and then unwittingly drove onto a footpath told police it was all because of love. She said she couldn't concentrate because she was besotted with a mystery policeman she had been trying to locate ever since laying eyes on him weeks before.
Stopped by police after her string of traffic violations, the 29-year-old woman said she had fallen in love with an officer she had met, and could think of nothing but him. "The woman had approached the police for help five weeks before saying she had met a policeman and had fallen 'head over heels' in eternal love with him," police in the western city of Münster said in a statement. The police station tried to help her find him by putting a notice in the local police newsletter, which was published on Thursday.
"She immediately came and fetched it. When she was stopped she pulled it out and checked if either of the officers was her 'prince.'" They weren't. "The officers told her to regain a more earthly view of things and to leave her quest for love up to cupid and the police," the statement said. The woman was fined.IN LOVE WITH A MAN IN UNIFORM - A woman who was stopped after nearly running over two... more
