Byo traffic police cause accident during taxi chase

Our sources this morning told us that three passengers were injured when a taxi driver tried to speed off from cops during the infamous traffic patrols at Kalbro, 11 Ave and Fort Street.

The shameless cops, according to some taxi drivers who spoke to Bulawayo24, who were driving a BMW vehicle were involved in a five minutes high speed chase with the taxi driver before the vehicle carrying about four passengers fell into a ditch and burst a tyre.

According to our sources, the cops, who in the past have sparked hue and displeasure from civil society for endangering passengers, wanted to 'conceal' the accident for fear of reprisals by the public.
