Unlicensed Chinese Undocumented Immigrant Busted After High-Speed Chase Thanks to Citizens

A police patrol car blocks an illegally U-turning vehicle from the front and back.

Suddenly, the car door opens and the passengers scatter in all directions.

Around 6:30 a.m. on the 25th, a Chinese undocumented immigrant in his 30s who fled after driving recklessly without a license and ignoring police orders to stop on a road in Yeon-dong, Jeju City, was apprehended following a pursuit by police and citizens.

Police on patrol at the time noticed that the 30-year-old Chinese driver, surnamed A, and all the passengers were not wearing seatbelts and attempted to pull the vehicle over.

However, ignoring the police officer's order to stop, they fled while driving recklessly, violating traffic signals, making illegal U-turns, and speeding.

Immediately initiating a pursuit, the police blocked the escape route by trapping the vehicle with two patrol cars from the front and back, but A and three others suddenly jumped out of the car and fled in different directions.

In particular, A ran into a major boulevard with heavy traffic and violently resisted the police officer trying to catch him.

Two citizens passing by at the moment lent a hand by grabbing A, enabling the police to apprehend him.

Police investigations revealed that A was driving without a license.

In addition, it was confirmed that A and his three companions were all Chinese undocumented immigrants whose authorized period of stay in the country had expired.

The Jeju Western Police Station booked A on charges including violations of the Road Traffic Act and is investigating him, while handing over the three undocumented passengers who were in the car driven by A to the immigration office.
