Sunday evening around 8 p.m. in Belfaux, a 19-year-old Swiss national fled across the field on the handlebars of a stolen motorcycle to escape police control, the Friborg cantonal police report.
After several avoidance maneuvers on the road and through the meadows, the young man abandoned the two-wheeler at the edge of the forest.
A major research facility was quickly put in place. A track was followed for 2.5 km by a
police dog handler and his pet. It made it possible to arrest the young man. He was placed under provisional arrest.
During the checks, it turned out that the motorcycle had been stolen during the evening at
Courtepin. It has been impounded at the disposal of the Competent Authority.
The alleged perpetrator of this theft will be reported to the prosecution.
