A chase ensued with the officers aboard a Toyota Land Cruiser.

“On the co-driver’s seat, Corporal John Okunga blared the vehicle’s siren for the speeding truck to stop, but that appeared to give its driver the impetus to accelerate further.”
The suspects did not stop prompting the officers to deflate two of their tyres.
