At around 2:00 AM, the man was driving on the A27 towards Utrecht-North with a trailer full of scaffolding materials. The man attracted attention because he was driving without lights, prompting the officers to signal him to stop. The driver ignored this and sped towards the Utrecht neighborhood of Overvecht. During the ride, the materials in the trailer became loose, causing several parts to fall out. One parked vehicle was damaged as a result.

After a chase, the suspect was boxed in on Miamidreef and was arrested. An investigation has been launched into, among other things, where this trailer and the scaffolding materials came from. The car and the trailer with materials have been seized.
