A policeman “seriously injured” after refusing to comply and a 3 km chase. The facts occurred in the North, in Anzin, around 11:30 p.m. on Monday. According to police sources, he was hit by a vehicle which refused a customs check and fled. This policeman, whose vital prognosis is not engaged, was injured in the back, indicated the Departmental Directorate of Public Security (DDSP) of the North.
The driver was arrested and taken into custody
Originally, it was customs officers who had set off in pursuit of a suspicious car, a gray Audi. Police officers from the BAC took over, while another police crew positioned itself as a blockade on a roundabout. This is where the driver drove off, crossing the small roundabout and colliding with an official, who was seriously injured but whose life was not in danger.
The 29-year-old driver of the car was arrested and taken into custody. According to Matthieu Valet, spokesperson for the Independent Union of Police Commissioners (SICP), the driver was carrying heroin. An investigation is underway to shed light on the circumstances of this case.
