A chase with gunfire was organized for a teenage driver in Nizhny Novgorod.

      Traffic police officers in Nizhny Novgorod detained a car driven by a 14-year-old teenager. This was reported by the Main Directorate of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Russia for the Nizhny Novgorod region. On the morning of August 14, a traffic police crew noticed a foreign car whose driver was demonstrating dangerous driving. When the police officers demanded that the driver stop, he attempted to flee. When the speed of the fleeing vehicle reached 160 km/h, the traffic police inspector decided to use his service weapon to stop the vehicle. The driver was warned several times about the intention to use the weapon, and two warning shots were fired. The police officer shot at the wheels of the offender's car, damaging them. The teenager stopped the foreign car near one of the houses on Alebastrovaya Street. It turned out that the car belonged to the teenager's stepfather. The vehicle was seized and placed in a specialized parking lot. A protocol was drawn up against the legal representative of the teenager under part 1 of article 5.35 of the Administrative Offenses Code of the Russian Federation.
