Police deploy a stinger device to stop a suspect vehicle in Derry after reports linking a black Mercedes 300 to several crashes in the city in recent months. The vehicle is spotted on Buncrana Road at around 12.30pm the previous day. Police attempt to bring the car to a halt using the stinger, but the driver does not stop and instead leaves the area toward Derry, driving at what officers describe as dangerous speeds. One report also says a firearm is drawn during the incident, suggesting the stop is treated as high risk. The available accounts describe the Mercedes as the focus of police attention due to its suspected involvement in multiple collisions, and they outline the general circumstances of the attempted stop and subsequent flight. No further details are provided in the excerpts on injuries, whether the stinger successfully deflates the vehicle, or whether anyone is arrested. Police continue to investigate the circumstances surrounding the earlier crashes and the attempted stop.
