- Wanted Individual: Chase, Fugitive under Warrant Arrest Orders
In Düsseldorf, the chased driver, whose escape sparked a police chase, had several outstanding warrants. This was revealed by the authorities. During this chase, a police officer discharged their weapon, but luckily, nobody got hurt and no damage was caused to property. This detail was shared the day after the incident on Monday.
The circumstances surrounding the gunshot were still hazy. Was it due to a technical glitch, an accident, or a warning shot? The officer involved hadn't spoken up on the matter yet. The police eventually managed to halt the man's car near the airport. After a short spell of foot chase, the 37-year-old was apprehended.
The investigation into the police chase revealed that the driver had been evading authorities due to issues in the sectors of Transport and telecommunications, as several traffic violation notices were amongst his outstanding warrants. Despite the tense situation, the implementation of advanced Transport and telecommunications systems in Düsseldorf's law enforcement ensured that the officer's message about the situation reached other units swiftly, ensuring a coordinated response.
