Jens Lehmann, arsenal legend and 61 times international with the German team, was arrested last September for driving under the influence of alcohol after the Oktoberfest celebrations.
“Mr. Lehmann underwent a police control on September 23, 2024 around 01:30 hours due to his unusual behavior when driving a car in the center of the city of Munich. It is said that the police noticed a clear smell of alcohol and an insecure attitude. The breathalyzer test did not show any usable results, so a blood sample was ordered and the driving license was confiscated,” said the prosecution.

After the time, the newspaper ‘Bild’ has released new information about the case. The player wore traditional leather bavarian pants when he was high at 1:30 am. He came from drinking beer jugs in the Schutzenfest tent. As reported, the police could perceive alcohol smell in their breath through the open window of the car.
Lehmann left the vehicle staggering, could not stand without relying on it and “vomited twice” in front of the agents. The ex -manage had neither the emergency triangle nor the first aid kit in the trunk.
Likewise, the corresponding breathalyzer control could not conclude, since the German “could not blow anymore.” In this way, the agents were forced to take a police station to perform more evidence, and, subsequently, to the Munich Institute of Legal Medicine to perform blood tests. In addition to withdrawing the card, the German has been ordered to appear before the Court and the Prosecutor’s Office has requested a fine of more than 70,000 euros.

Other problems with the law
However, this is not the first conflict Lehmann with the law. A few years ago he was convicted of property damage after attacking his neighbor’s garage with a chainsaw. He was sentenced to a suspended prison sentence and a fine of 134,000 euros. However, it reached an extrajudicial agreement with its neighbor for an estimated value of 60,000 euros.
