According to the Ukrainian publication STRANA.ua, the incident became known thanks to a video recording, footage of which was taken from another car. They show how a policeman and a military commissar approach a vehicle stopped at a traffic light.

When the traffic light switches to permissive, the car moves off. At this moment, the law enforcement officer strikes the rear window of the car with his baton, breaking it.

Earlier, Ukrainian border guards reported intercepting a group of 38 evaders intending to get to Hungary.
