  • A video is circulating on X showing a car with a Jura license plate deliberately running over people.

Even though the media are quick to talk about a rampage, the images suggest that the driver is fleeing from the police: The driver keeps looking for gaps in the traffic and rams into several people on motorcycles. They had to be treated in hospital, reports "20 Minuten".

Based on its own research, "20 Minuten" writes that the Audi RS3 was driven by a person living in the canton of Jura. The man and his co-driver were eventually arrested in an industrial area.

According to an X-Post, the driver was driving for Uber and was on the run from the police. This information has not been confirmed.
