  • In the video, the man speaks rudely and does not explain his behavior

Attack on pedestrians and the driver's escape

In Krasnodar, a drunk driver of a foreign-made car tried to run over people who were hiding from him in bushes. This was reported by Gazeta.Ru citing the Telegram channel Kub Mash. According to the channel, the man was driving a red Ford, was intoxicated, shouted about his connections in the police, and then drove away from the scene. Law enforcement officers have not yet found him.

What is visible in the footage and what witnesses claim

The published footage shows the man speaking rudely and being unable to explain the reason for his behavior. One of the pedestrians, who says he was nearly run over, claims that the neighborhood police officer knows where the culprit lives. This detail remains a witness's claim: the publication contains no confirmation from the police, nor any information about a case being opened or about any victims.

Other road incidents in the same period

The same outlet described separate incidents in other cities on the same day: in Mytishchi, a driver wrecked his own car in the Yaroslavsky residential complex, explaining the act as jealousy toward his wife, after which neighbors called the police; in Nizhny Novgorod, a driver and a driving instructor got into a fight at a bus stop, and a passerby rushed in to separate them. These are independent cases, unrelated to the Krasnodar incident.
