Overview

• A passing couple found the man at a parking area between Evendorf and Bispingen and brought him to the Soltau police station.
• The traveler from Nordhausen had no phone, no money, and did not know his wife’s or daughter’s numbers.
• Initial checks, including coordination with the man’s home police service, failed to locate the family.
• Police provided mineral water as he waited, and the reunion followed after more than two hours.
• The wife and daughter had already realized the mistake and were searching, and police later advised prompt contact with local authorities in similar cases.
