Police located the driver at a hotel parking lot and conducted an alcohol test, finding 1.32 mg of alcohol per liter of exhaled air. His driver’s license was revoked, further driving was prohibited, and a court report was submitted.

Police in Koper have investigated two separate incidents involving dogs biting people, along with multiple cases of underage drivers operating modified mopeds that exceeded legal speed limits. In addition, they located a stolen motorcycle from Trieste near Portorož, according to reports from local authorities. The first incident occurred on Friday when three dogs belonging to a 59-year-old woman approached a 65-year-old man who was walking his dog in one of the neighborhoods within the Koper municipality. The man reportedly upset the dogs, leading them to bite him. One of the dogs inflicted minor injuries. Police stated they would take appropriate action against the owner of the dogs and document the case with the relevant authorities responsible for animal welfare and safety. A similar incident took place on Saturday evening in another neighborhood of the Koper municipality. A dog owned by a 53-year-old man bit a 69-year-old man from the surrounding area. Authorities confirmed they would initiate administrative proceedings against the dog’s owner and prepare a report for the relevant department. In parallel, police also addressed several cases of underage drivers operating modified mopeds that exceeded legal speed limits. On Friday afternoon, officers stopped a 15-year-old driver whose moped was found to exceed the permitted speed limit. Later that day, they also detained two other 16-year-olds for the same reason. All three mopeds were seized, and administrative procedures will be initiated against the minors. On Saturday afternoon, police stopped a 13-year-old driver who did not possess a valid driving license. As a result, they will initiate administrative proceedings against the child's guardian. Later that day, they also dealt with a 16-year-old driver whose moped was found to exceed the allowed speed limit. The vehicle was seized, and further administrative actions will follow. Separately, on Friday afternoon, police received a report from a 19-year-old Italian citizen stating that his motorcycle had been stolen in Trieste and was believed to be located near Portorož based on GPS data. Upon arrival at the scene, officers found the stolen motorcycle along with three 17-year-old Slovenian citizens. One of the young men claimed he had purchased the vehicle from an unknown individual in Isola. The stolen motorcycle has since been returned to its rightful owner, according to the police statement. Authorities continue to gather information related to these incidents, emphasizing their commitment to maintaining public safety and enforcing traffic regulations. The cases highlight ongoing challenges in both animal control and youth-related road safety issues in the region.
