Policemen manning a checkpoint near the passports roundabout in Salmiya noticed a driver attempting to avoid them, so he was chased until he collided with a patrol car and escaped. Later, a call was received about a car with sparks coming out of a tire near a mall on the Fifth Ring Road, whose driver left the car and escaped. Police were able to identify and arrest him.

Beggars arrested

Interior Ministry Assistant Undersecretary for Operations Affairs Maj Gen Jamal Al-Sayegh asked police patrols to be present around Mubarakiya and its markets because the number of beggars is on the rise, as social media posts show. A source said policewomen can be used to arrest female beggars, adding all those arrested will be deported and their sponsors will not be allowed to sponsor anyone anymore. Meanwhile, six beggars were arrested in Farwaniya and were sent to concerned authorities to be deported.
