On the night of Wednesday to Thursday, May 27, around 3:20 a.m., police officers patrolling in a screen-printed car, Marels sector in Montpellier, surprise a motorist taking a forbidden direction, as if to avoid them. Inappropriate behavior which obviously titillates their curiosity. But when they decide to retrace their steps, the driver shifts into high gear and fled at full speed.

He forces a police roadblock

A long chase ensues, which will last more than twenty minutes, during which the defendant will multiply the traffic offenses. Until turning off his headlights to try to sow his pursuers.

After heading towards Crès, it passes through Vendargues then Saint-Aunès, in the shopping area as well as in the center of the village, before returning to Vendargues. On a roundabout, he will even force a police roadblock, forcing the officials to move aside in his path.

Not knowing where to take refuge, he will finally take a road along the A 709 and get blocked by the police in front of the motorway gate.
