3 arrested for alleged weapon and drug offences after car crashes into police vehicle during Sengkang chase

One woman and two men were arrested for the alleged possession of offensive weapons and suspected drug-related offences following a police chase in Sengkang on Sunday (Jan 17).

In response to a Stomp query, a police spokesman said the Traffic Police were patrolling along Fernvale Road towards Sengkang West at 3.48pm when they signalled a male driver to stop his car along the roadside to conduct a check.

However, the driver sped off.

"The officers gave chase and the pursuit came to a halt when the car crashed into a stationary police vehicle that was blocking the car’s path to the exit of Block 313 Anchorvale Road’s multi-storey carpark," police added.

"One female and two male passengers, aged between 16 and 31, were arrested for alleged possession of offensive weapons and suspected drug-related offences."

Several videos circulating on Facebook show two of the suspects, a man and a woman, in handcuffs at the multi-storey carpark.

Police officers can also be seen searching a black car.

Police are investigating the incident.
