In a video shared online, the young man is seen in a police van alongside other people who had been supposedly apprehended by the police, but as they were driving off, he jumped down from the police van and dashed into thin air in a flash.
The young guy jumped from the van and bolted so quickly that the camera was only able to catch a glimpse of him in motion.
All bystanders could do was watch the drama unfold in surprise and even the police officers seemed so taken aback that they could not even engage him in a chase.
