Police stop

A Russian police officer recently underwent an unwelcome adventure when he tried to stop a suspect vehicle. Officers wanted to stop the car for a routine check and had set up a roadblock with a police vehicle. But the driver knew he was committing an offence and used his car to shove the police vehicle out of the way and attempted to elude the policemen by driving off at speed. One officer however ended up clinging to the front of the car as it tried to flee from the police. The officer had to hold on for around 5km, as the vehicle raced along a major road in Omsk and veered around other road users. The driver was unwilling to stop and other police officers had to resort to shooting out the vehicle’s tyres. The young driver has a history of driving offences to his record and his licence was suspended at the time of the incident, which explains his reluctance to stop. However this latest incident left him facing even more serious charges, including attempted murder of the officer.
