A WANTED man has been accused of ramming a stationary police car
with his Honda in a bid to evade arrest - only to crash into a road
sign.
The 31-year-old was arrested on suspicion of voluntarily causing
hurt to deter a public servant from his duty, as well as other
crimes including drug-related offences and loan-sharking
activities, police said on Friday.
A 26-year-old woman, who was in the suspect's car, was arrested
for similar offences.
The alleged incident occurred on Thursday at about 10pm, when
police were on patrol near Block 25 Jalan Berseh.
They spotted the suspect's car parked at the foot of the block
of flats and checked on the driver.
But the man, wanted for his suspected involvement in an armed
robbery that took place in November last year, is said to have
tried to evade the police by speeding off.
