A 16-year-old teenager will be charged in court on Wednesday (June 24) after he allegedly attempted to evade a police roadblock and collided into two enforcement officers stationed there.

The police said in a statement that officers from the traffic police and Land Transport Authority (TPA) had set up a joint roadblock along Commonwealth Avenue West towards Commonwealth Avenue on March 21.

When he approached the roadblock, he rode at high speed on his unregistered vehicle hitting a traffic police officer and an LTA officer.

The 44-year-old male LTA officer was severely hurt, suffering a brain injury, knee fracture, muscle tear and a sprained ligament.
