Police pursued a passenger car.
A passenger car chose not to stop despite a police patrol's instruction when officers intended to carry out a vehicle check on county road 2105 in Rölanda. A pursuit of the car was therefore initiated, involving several patrols.
The pursuit lasted approximately 30 minutes and headed south. It ended outside Högsäter after police stopped the vehicle using a deployed spike strip.
Two men were secured in the car. The driver (a man in his 45s) is suspected of gross negligence in traffic, drug-impaired driving, narcotics offences for personal use, aggravated driving without a licence, and failing to stop when ordered by a police officer. He was taken in for sampling in connection with the drug-related suspicions.
