Chase with Air Jump
Around 1:00 AM, officers saw a scooter with two boys riding on the bike path along the Laan van België. The boys stood out because they were nervously looking around. When the police wanted to check them, they fled. Despite a stop signal and the use of visual and sound signals, they continued to drive.
At a speed of about 50 km/h, they drove towards a hedge without slowing down. The scooter and both suspects literally flew into the air and landed meters away on the Laan van Henegouwen. Despite the fall, they immediately got back up and ran towards a nearby supermarket. Officers managed to apprehend the passenger after a short chase. The driver was arrested shortly thereafter by colleagues. They are two 16-year-old boys from Bergen op Zoom.
Stolen Scooter
After checking, it was found that the scooter was stolen. Both suspects have been arrested on suspicion of handling stolen goods.
