The Dnipropetrovsk Regional Territorial Center for Recruitment and Social Support issued a statement regarding a video that appeared showing a man fleeing from military personnel, as reported by "Vідомо".
"An emotional video is circulating on social media and in the media, depicting a civilian running along the roadway with a head injury. On December 9, 2024, this conscripted citizen of Ukraine was detained by the National Police as a violator of military registration rules, and together with the military personnel of the RTC and SP, was being taken for the preparation of a report on an administrative offense as stipulated in part 2 of article 210-1 of the Code of Ukraine on Administrative Offenses. This citizen also exhibited signs of alcohol intoxication," the statement reads.
The Territorial Center notes that when the man heard from the soldiers that he would face consequences for violating military registration rules and legal nihilism, he initially attempted to break the door and jump out while in motion.
"As he was unable to open the door, he smashed a car window and began to climb out onto the roadway while the vehicle was still moving. Due to his inadequate actions, this citizen sustained multiple cuts from the glass to his head, arms, and clothing. Currently, the citizen has been handed over to law enforcement authorities in Ukraine. If you witness any possible offenses or conflict situations, please contact law enforcement or the hotline of the Command of the Ground Forces of the Armed Forces of Ukraine at 0 800 301 937," the statement adds.
