A Volgodonsk resident sustained a concussion and a broken nose during a tense incident that began when the person grabbed the door handle of a police car while the vehicle was in motion. According to Don Mash, the claim surfaced through a Telegram channel reporting on local events, painting a scenario of sudden acceleration by the police driver after a confrontation at a relative’s home.

The sequence reportedly unfolded on March 4, when Olga Ozhogova and her husband visited their brother. After a heated argument among family members, police units were dispatched to the residence. The home owner was then taken into custody by the officers as part of the escalation. As the detainee was placed inside the police car, the woman attempted to address the officers and queried a potential issue, only to reach for the car door handle as the vehicle started to move unexpectedly. The driver reportedly accelerated with noticeable speed, and the vision of the events became hazy for the witness from that point forward, as described by the victim to Don Mash’s source.

What followed involved the woman clarifying her intention was not to resist the detainment but rather to locate a missing phone she believed to be in her possession, hoping to use it to contact authorities or assist in locating the device. Notebook Volgodonsk, cited in local coverage, notes that administrative proceedings were initiated not only against the police officer involved but also against the victim for alleged traffic violations observed during the melee.

Additional background indicates that a separate incident nearby involved a Volvo in Moscow, where a parking scenario featured four vehicles close together. The exact connection between that report and the Volgodonsk case remains unclear in the available summaries, but it underscores the complexity and sometimes chaotic nature of urban police encounters and the sometimes incomplete chain of information transmitted through various local outlets.
