Billionaire heir wanted by police after car crash incident

[17 June 2008]

Hans Kristian Rausing, heir to a multi-million pound fortune, is wanted by police over claims that he didn't stop after crashing into another car.

There were reports that Mr Rausing's Audi Quattro crashed into a car in Chiswick, west London, on Sunday after he had been driving “erratically”. Mr Rausing and his wife were also arrested in April after she reportedly attempted to smuggle drugs into the US embassy. Police visited an address in Chelsea to investigate the report, but the registered owner of the vehicle was not at that address. Police have said that inquires will continue.
