An incredible incident reminiscent of movies, unfolded early Saturday afternoon, outside Larissa.

According to the first information of onlarissa.gr, everything started when the police received a signal that a stolen Nissan Navara farm car, with one passenger, was moving on the Athens-Thessaloniki highway, heading towards the co-capital.

A chase started from the Moschohori toll road, with the driver not stopping at any of the police signals. Passing Larissa, at the height of Gyrtoni, the driver of the vehicle left the national highway and made a U-turn, after a while re-entering PATHE, in the direction of Athens

After Larissa he left the highway again, choosing the provincial road network and having patrol cars behind him chasing him.

He finally abandoned the stolen vehicle outside the village of Moschohori after it crashed into a wall and then tried to escape on foot. Later, under as yet unclear circumstances, a police officer allegedly shot and fatally wounded him. According to other onlarissa.gr sources, this is a 20-year-old foreigner of Syrian origin. He was released from prison last March after serving a felony sentence for trafficking illegal immigrants.
