During patrol, police officers encountered a driver with a known license plate. The driver is known for frequently driving without a license and was therefore given a stop signal. The car did not stop and fled. Officers pursued the vehicle, which eventually came to a halt after colliding with a parked car on Van Dishoeckstraat. The driver then exited the vehicle and ran away. Shortly after, officers detained the 17-year-old from Vlissingen.

After the arrest, officers found hard drugs in his underwear. Additionally, he tested positive for cannabis in a preliminary saliva test. The car was confiscated. The suspect was taken to the police station and questioned. The repeated driving without a license, driving under the influence of drugs, leaving the scene of an accident, causing danger and obstruction on the road, ignoring a stop signal, and possession of hard drugs will have serious consequences for the driver. The suspect may await his sentence while free.
