Turk arrested after car chase in the center of Athens

A chase that led to the arrest of a Turk and the detection of two weapons as well as suspicious clothing took place yesterday, Monday (25/11), in the center of Athens with the case being considered serious and already in the hands of the Greek Serious Crimes Unit, often referred to in the ress as the "Greek FBI" .

As can be seen from the report of protothema.gr, everything happened when officers of the OPKE Attica who were patrolling in the center of the capital spotted a car with four people moving suspiciously in the area of ​​Agios Panteleimonas.

The police immediately attempted to capture him, however the driver sped through the narrow streets and crashed into parked vehicles without stopping.

Finally, a little further on, the vehicle stopped with the occupants opening the doors and trying to escape. The police pursued them on foot and managed to catch two of them.

During their escape, some of the occupants threw a pistol (Glock type) into a bin as well as the clothes they were wearing, however the Hellenic Police officers located and confiscated them. At the same time, during a search of their vehicle, another weapon was found, also a Glock type.

One of the two Turks was arrested while the case, which is considered serious, was taken over by the "Greek FBI" with investigators searching for at least two more people and collecting evidence in order to determine if the perpetrators are connected to previous cases.

Well-informed sources reported that what is causing concern is that the weapons are allegedly of Turkish production and arrived in our country through trafficking networks
