Money thrown out the window
Several road users witnessed the pursuit. So was Jesse, who was driving on the A59 near Oosterhout when a silver Volkswagen Golf drove by. “I heard police behind me and pulled over. The driver of the Volkswagen reached out of the window with what appeared to be a phone to film it. The co-driver threw out twenty and fifty euro notes.”

The notes landed on Jesse’s car. “I think it was thousands of euros. The money was blown over the highway.”
