The firearm that was recovered by Police

The rank reportedly attempted to stop him, but in an effort to escape, he collided with a motor car and a barrier, thus causing him to lose control of the motorcycle. The impact of the collision caused a firearm reportedly being carried by the suspect to fall onto the roadway. The motorcyclist then regained balance and made good his escape.
Upon inspection, the firearm was confirmed to be a black and silver 9mm Girsan pistol with four matching rounds of ammunition. The firearm was subsequently taken to the Criminal Investigation Department (CID) and lodged as investigations continue.
