Jens Lehmann Fined for Property Damage Case

Former German goalkeeper Jens Lehmann has been fined €135,000 (approximately $150,000) following a conviction for property damage and attempted fraud after using a chainsaw to damage a neighbor's garage in July 2022. This sentence was reduced from an initial fine of €420,000 on appeal, and Lehmann has settled with his neighbor for around €67,000. Additionally, he faced accusations of attempting to evade parking fees at Munich Airport, which were later resolved. Recently, Lehmann was stopped by police for suspected drunk driving after attending Oktoberfest, leading to the confiscation of his driver's license. His legal troubles have overshadowed his career achievements, including being part of Arsenal's 'Invincibles' and representing Germany in international competitions. The ongoing investigations into his alleged drunk driving are still pending.
