On Saturday, November 16, around 6:30 p.m., an off-duty policeman from Ostrołęka was returning from shopping. Then he noticed how the driver of the Audi, after hitting a lamppost, was driving at high speed on the sidewalk and on a bicycle path, and then stopped several dozen meters from the property fence. After that he tried to back out to get back on the road. The officer suspected that the Audi driver might be under the influence of alcohol.

“He stopped his vehicle and ran to the Audi, then the driver took off. However, after several dozen meters of foot chase, he was caught by an off-duty policeman. During the intervention, the 19-year-old behaved aggressively, at one point he severely bit the policeman's hand,” he described in communiqué of supercomm.
