In Odesa, during a routine document check, a driver suddenly opened fire on patrolling police officers. Two police officers were injured, and the shooter is currently wanted.

This was reported by the press service of the National Police in Odesa region.

A shooting involving patrol police officers took place in Odesa. The incident occurred while checking the driver's documents - according to preliminary information, the man suddenly pulled out a weapon and opened fire on the police.

As a result of the attack, two patrol policemen sustained gunshot wounds. They were promptly provided with medical assistance, and doctors are currently assessing their condition.

After the shooting, the attacker fled. A special police operation was launched in the city to detain him. All specialized services are involved in the search.

According to preliminary data, the man is wanted for evading mobilization. An investigative team is working at the scene to establish all the circumstances of the incident.

Law enforcement officials promise to provide more detailed information after the initial investigative actions.

Also, the Odesa Regional Territorial Center for Equipping and Social Support commented on a video of a conflict in one of the yards of the Peresypskyi district of Odesa, which was accompanied by shots.

According to the TCC, while checking military records, a joint alert group found a man who, according to the databases, was wanted for unauthorized departure from a military unit. They tried to detain him, but he resisted and tried to escape, so law enforcement officers used force. The clash attracted the attention of passers-by, who, unaware of the man's status, tried to prevent the arrest.

And in late February, a conflict between the military on Black Sea Cossacks Street in Odesa gained traction due to false reports on the Internet. During the dispute, one of the soldiers broke discipline and fired a blank cartridge into the air with an Erma stun gun.
