On Friday afternoon, a 60-year-old farmer in Gliwice purposely plowed up approximately 200 meters of newly laid asphalt, causing damages estimated at around 400,000 PLN. <\/p>\n
On Friday afternoon, a 60-year-old farmer drove a tractor with an attached plow onto the freshly laid asphalt on Rybackia Street in the Ostropa district of Gliwice. He deliberately plowed about 200 meters of the new roadway, explaining that the street allegedly belongs to him and that the ongoing renovation is illegal.<\/p>\n
Due to the destruction of both the surface itself and the road foundation, the damages were estimated at around 400,000 PLN. Gliwice Mayor Katarzyna Kuczy\u0144ska-Budka posted a recording on Facebook showing the farmer plowing the asphalt.<\/p>\n
It was not the first time the farmer destroyed public property. He also threatened that he would repeat the attack after the services left, but construction workers stopped him from further devastation by blocking his path with machinery.<\/p>\n
The detained 60-year-old was sober, and his tractor, which lacked mandatory third-party liability insurance, was towed to a police parking lot. Municipal Road Management and the authorities of Gliwice firmly denied the man’s claims, emphasizing that the road entirely belongs to the city. According to residents and officials, the farmer is a conflict-prone individual who has previously destroyed public property, including smashing curbs with a hammer, and has directed threats toward his neighbors.<\/p>\n
On Sunday, the farmer who plowed the asphalt on Rybackia Street in Ostropa was charged with the destruction of property of significant value, as announced by prosecutor Mi\u0142osz \u017byme\u0142ka from the Gliwice-Zach\u00f3d District Prosecutor’s Office.<\/p>\n
The suspect was presented with a charge of destroying property of significant value. After analyzing the case files, the prosecutor decided to submit a motion to the court for a three-month temporary arrest for the man, citing the threat of a severe penalty as the justification. Destruction of property of significant value carries a prison sentence ranging from 1 to 10 years.<\/p>\n
Ostropa, although incorporated into Gliwice in 1975, has partially retained its rural character to this day.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
