The Grand Ducal Police have reported several incidents involving public disorder, suspected drug dealing and dangerous driving that took place on Tuesday 10 and Wednesday 11 February 2026.
On Tuesday in the late afternoon, police were alerted to a man causing a disturbance at the train station in Ettelbruck. A patrol attended the scene and located the individual, who appeared to be heavily intoxicated. As he was disturbing public order and posed a risk due to his condition, he was placed in custody following a medical examination.
Also on Tuesday afternoon, a police patrol observed an exchange between two individuals on Route de Luxembourg in Pétange which, according to initial information, raised suspicions of a possible drug transaction. Both men were checked. A small quantity of cannabis was found on one of them, while the second individual was found in possession of cash, a joint and a knuckle-duster. On the orders of the Public Prosecutor’s Office, a house search was subsequently carried out at the latter’s residence. Officers discovered additional drugs, various drug paraphernalia, a blank-firing pistol and a machete. The items were seized and a report was drawn up.
In a separate incident on Wednesday at around 03:20, police were notified of a vehicle travelling against the direction of traffic on the A4 motorway and, according to initial information, reversing down the Pontpierre exit. A patrol was able to stop the vehicle shortly afterwards on the CR13. During the check, officers noted clear signs of alcohol consumption. The driver’s licence was confiscated.
