Man, 22, was taken into custody after trying to evade a Traffic Police officer during a morning patrol on May 15 in Aljunied. Police chase him on motorbike then on foot before arrested. A black samurai sword, presumed controlled substances, and drug paraphernalia in his car.
A video captures the moment the man, wearing an anime t-shirt (“Power from Chainsawman”) and a cap, dashes back to his Mitsubishi, which was halted at a traffic light. He was intercepted by the officer before he could shut his car door.
Meanwhile, two passengers exited the vehicle.
The incident began when the officer signaled the man’s car to halt for an inspection on Aljunied Road around 11:25 am. Although the man initially indicated compliance, he abruptly accelerated away. After a brief pursuit, he deserted his car at a junction and attempted to escape on foot but was soon captured by the pursuing officer.
