In the Sokuluk district, law enforcement had to use firearms to detain drunk drivers
Last night on the Bishkek — Manas highway, a chase ended with gunfire and the detention of three young men. The driver of a VAZ-2106, under the influence of drugs and alcohol, ignored police orders and attempted to flee, resulting in several traffic accidents, as reported by the Main Internal Affairs Directorate of the Chui region.
It all began with a serious violation of traffic rules by the driver, which created dangerous situations on the road. After receiving a report of the incident, patrol officers arrived at the scene and began pursuing the violator.
During the chase, the driver rammed two patrol vehicles — a Renault Logan and a Chevrolet Cobalt. When he finally managed to stop, he and two passengers attempted to escape. To stop the fugitives, law enforcement officers fired warning shots into the air. During the arrest, the 22-year-old driver actively resisted, damaging the inspector's uniform. One of the passengers was also detained, while the second was caught an hour later.
As a result of a narcological examination, the presence of alcohol and drugs was detected in the driver and both passengers.
In connection with this incident, a criminal case has been initiated under Article 280 of the Criminal Code of the Kyrgyz Republic.
The suspects K.J. (born in 2002), M.A. (born in 1999), and A.A. (born in 2001) have been detained and placed in a temporary detention facility. The investigation is ongoing.
