SULTRA - Polda Southeast Sulawesi (Sultra) ensures responsibility for a student with the initials SS (21), the victim of a stray bullet from the police pursuit of the perpetrator of drug trafficking.
"We are responsible for the disaster that befell SS students. The cost of treatment is our responsibility," said Director of Drug Investigation at the Southeast Sulawesi Police, Kombes Pol. Bambang Tahjo Bawono in Kendari, Thursday, February 1, confiscated by Antara.
This unfortunate incident occurred on Tuesday, January 30 at around 22:58 WITA in front of the Lamomea gas station in South Konawe Regency. At that time, the Southeast Sulawesi Police Narcotics Investigation team was chasing two men with the initials IP and AN on suspicion of drug trafficking cases.
Starting from reconnaissance, six members of the Opsnal Unit 1 Sub-Directorate II of the Narcotics Directorate of the Southeast Sulawesi Police saw a white Honda Brio with the number DT-1375-BB driven by IP, entering the gas station area.
IP got off the vehicle and then took a pack of Milo's milk box that was placed on the ground around the gas station.
The police reminded the perpetrators to be cooperative. However, the perpetrator tried to avoid, and even rushed into a four-wheeled vehicle.
"The perpetrator at that time did not want to give up, did not want to make peace with us, even the person concerned returned to the car, then immediately stepped on the gas," he said.
