In Navoi region, law enforcement officers detained a schoolboy who, while intoxicated, was driving a Malibu-2 and organizing a race with traffic police officers, the press service of the regional Department of Internal Affairs reports.
According to the information, the incident occurred at the “Samarkand” checkpoint. While on duty, law enforcement officers tried to stop the car by giving a corresponding signal, but the driver ignored it and tried to flee. After a short pursuit, law enforcement officers were able to stop the vehicle.
