Flee from PSP and attempt to run over agent: police end up saving them from burning car

Notícias de Coimbra30 August 2026 at 09:50

A driver without a driving licence attempted to flee from a PSP traffic stop operation in Portugal, but ended up losing control and crashing into two parked cars. During the flight, the occupants also attempted to run over a police officer.

After the crash, the vehicle caught fire, and the PSP officers managed to save the occupants from the flames. The incident occurred when authorities were attempting to perform a routine stop on the public road.

The driver did not hold a driving licence, which appears to have motivated the attempt to flee. Authorities do not indicate whether the occupants were injured in the incident.
