Truck robber shot dead after highway chase
A native of north China's Hebei Province was shot dead by police in Beijing Sunday after he struck 20-plus motor vehicles and injured eight people while driving a stolen truck.
The truck collided with two mini-buses when it began driving against traffic at 9:28 a.m. today. Acting on reports, local police organized efforts to intercept the truck. However, Yang's truck broke through four police blockade lines. When it came to a toll collection center on Badaling Expressway, the truck turned around abruptly and again drove toward oncoming traffic. To ensure the safety of passers-by, police evacuated people present and shot into the air as a warning. But the truck bumped into two police cars, a water tank and a bus parked at the roadside. Finally, police shot him dead. Investigation into the case is still going on. |
