Border guards detained a man who was trying to illegally cross the Danube into Romania on an underwater scooter. According to the SBGS spokesperson, this is one of the strangest ways to cross the border in recent times.

The spokesman for the State Border Guard Service, Andriy Demchenko, said that the method chosen by the man to illegally cross the border, namely using an underwater scooter, was one of the strangest in his memory. This was the second time the man was detained while trying to illegally cross the border. The first time he wanted to simply cross the state border line, but he failed.

Demchenko said this during a telethon, UNN reports.

Details

Quite often I am asked about the strangest ways people try to illegally cross the border, and recently it is with the use of such an underwater scooter that is one of the strangest ways. The previous attempts were actually repeated, but this is the first such attempt to illegally cross the border using an underwater scooter. This is the second time the man has been detained. The first time he wanted to simply cross the state border, but he failed. Now he decided to try his hand at the water section of the border, where it runs along the river

- Demchenko said. 

He noted that “standard cases” recorded by border guards are groups of 2-5 people.

There are also individual attempts to illegally cross the border. There are also cases when we detain larger groups, but 2 to 5 people are the main groups that appear at the border and are detained during an attempt to illegally cross

- Demchenko added.
