Youth, cops fights: A young man got a fracture in his jaw after engaging in a fistfight with some traffic patrol officers in Jahra Industrial Area.
Security sources revealed the officers were on duty in the area when they noticed two youths performing car stunts, so they stopped them to issue a citation but the youths got angry and badmouthed the officers. This led into a fistfight between the officers and the youths, resulting in injuries to one of the youths.
A case was registered against the officers and the youths’ vehicle was impounded.

Youth hoodwinks police: An unidentified youth, who had earlier evaded arrest for his involvement in a criminal case, again succeeded in dodging police officers when he abandoned his vehicle and escaped on foot in Salwa.
While patrolling the area, the officers noticed the suspicious movement of a vehicle, so they signaled for the driver to pull over for routine inspection. This led to the discovery that the driver, a young man, had previously been involved in a crime without getting arrested.
Upon sensing a similar action will be taken against him, the suspect got out of his car and fled on foot. The officers chased him but lost track of him as he used the houses as cover. His vehicle was impounded and the officers heightened search efforts to arrest him.

‘Arrest our son’: An Arab couple lodged a complaint at the Hawally Police Station against their son, who allegedly consumes alcohol and drugs.
According to the complainants, their son usually arrives home under the influence of alcohol and drugs and they can no longer tolerate his behavior, so they decided to report his illegal activities to the authorities.
A case was registered and police will soon summon the son for interrogation to verify the complaint.
