An explosion struck a police patrol car near Moscow’s Savelovsky Station Square around midnight on Tuesday morning, according to local authorities.
Russia’s interior ministry said one police officer was killed and two others injured after an unknown individual approached their vehicle, where an explosion ensued.
“Today, at approximately 12:05 a.m., an unknown individual approached traffic police officers from the North-Eastern District of Moscow’s Internal Affairs Directorate, who were patrolling in a service vehicle near Savelovsky Station Square,” the ministry said in a statement, as reported by Russia’s independent outlet Astra.
In a video shared by Astra showing the aftermath, the car’s windows were shattered, the trunk was open, and dents were visible on the doors. The vehicle, however, was not burned in the explosion.
