There were two police chases in Chaozhou Town, Pingtung County within a week, and coincidentally, the suspects in both cases were drug drivers! The most recent incident occurred at about 1 a.m. on November 12. The police chased him for 9 kilometers along the road. The man surnamed Liu was suspected of being issued multiple red orders along the way. In addition to being jailed, he was also fined an additional 8,100 yuan.

Chaozhou Police Station stated that the police officers were on patrol duty early yesterday morning. When they were waiting for a red light on Guanghua Road in Chaozhou Town, they saw through the rearview mirror that a 31-year-old man surnamed Liu was riding a motorcycle fast and slow, acting suspiciously. When the police signaled to stop, Liu actually sped up and fled. The police saw that Mr. Liu was obviously no longer able to drive safely and was driving in dangerous ways such as snaking and running red lights. In order to prevent Mr. Liu from harming the lives of other passers-by, they stopped Mr. Liu on the Taiping Road in Chaozhou Town and forced him to leave the car. After a 9-kilometer chase, they subdued him with superior police force.

The police found the second-level drug etomidate cigarette cartridges in Mr. Liu's car and body. After performing a quick saliva test on Liu, the results showed a positive reaction for the second-level drug methamphetamine. The whole case was transferred to the Pingtung District Prosecutor's Office for investigation on suspicion of drug violations and public danger cases. Suspect Liu was also a wanted criminal involved in nine drug cases and was arrested and brought to justice in accordance with the law. The police later checked the secret recorder and issued Liu another 7 tickets totaling 8,100 yuan.

Another chase involving drug-driving police and robbers occurred in Chaozhou town on Thursday night. At that time, the police chased a suspicious passenger car and ordered the suspect to get out of the car with a gun. Etomidate cartridges and other evidence were also found in the car. In just one week, a series of drug-driving police and robber chases were staged in the town, which also made local residents panic.
