The driver of a white Suzuki Jeep with license plate M-9960, with initials W.F. St. J. was ordered to stop his vehicle because he did not pay his road taxes. The suspect who is well known by police ignored the orders of the officer and increased his speed down Backstreet. At that same moment, another patrol officer had arrived on the scene. This officer had to jump out of the way to avoid being hit by the car.
However, the patrol bicycle was hit by the car and dragged approximately 60 meters down Back street. The bicycle came to rest in the "Last bus stop" on Back street. The Police bicycle with a value of Euro 800, - was destroyed. The suspect continued fleeing to the home of his mother at Fort Willem. There the suspect's vehicle was located. However, the suspect had fled on foot. A search of the home and the area did not have any results. The suspect's vehicle was confiscated for further investigation and towed by a towing company.

Did the officer get injured, if no god bless him. Because I was not that fortunate when I got hit by and drunken AUC student, there was no dectective or forensic depart on my scene and nothing came out of this situation. But I will pray for that driver.
Waiting to see what will be the outcome of this situation....
