Police officers responded to the Taurage branch of the state company, Regitra, on Tuesday afternoon, following a disturbance that prompted emergency services to be called via the 112 number. The incident centered on a vehicle identified as a Toyota Prius. At approximately 3:40 p.m., a 58-year-old man arrived at the Regitra branch, located on Melioratorių street, intending to register a light vehicle.
According to Regitra staff, the process involved an examination evaluation, which the company stated was being reviewed to better assist future drivers. Upon checking the vehicle’s data, Regitra personnel discovered that the Toyota Prius was currently flagged in international searches. Authorities suspect the vehicle may have been stolen in France, a possibility suggested by the presence of official country markings.
The primary suspicion is that the car was stolen and subsequently brought into Lithuania. The interaction highlighted the thorough checks conducted by the state agency when citizens attempt to register vehicles. The discovery indicated that the vehicle’s documentation did not align with legitimate local records, leading to the police involvement.
The man who attempted to register the vehicle was informed of the discrepancy. This incident underscores the measures Regitra employs to maintain the integrity of vehicle registration records within the country.
