A dramatic scene unfolded in Minsk when an unidentified driver sped through a police checkpoint to escape baton-wielding security officers. As officers began to surround the vehicle, the driver attempted to escape and reversed quickly, spinning the car so that it was facing against the normal flow of traffic. Dozens of security officers approached the car and began to beat the windows with batons before pulling one person from the vehicle. The driver then sped off the wrong way down the road through the crowds of officers attempting to stop the car.
