A local high school student in his twenties with multiple records of riding motorcycles without a licence has been arrested again for the same offence, Public Security Police (PSP) spokeswoman Kuong Chi Ian said at a regular press conference yesterday.
The suspect is surnamed Wong.
According to Kuong, Wong encountered a police checkpoint when riding a motorcycle on Avenida Marginal Flor de Lótus on Sunday and tried to escape by speeding through the roadblock. Wong even jumped a red light during the police pursuit but was intercepted later near Seac Pai Van in Coloane.
Under questioning, Wong admitted the wrongdoing and said that the motorcycle was borrowed from a friend who doesn’t have a driving licence either.
Wong has been transferred to the Public Prosecutions Office (MP), facing charges of aggravated disobedience and dangerous driving, Kuong said.
