Even though two of the rear tires of the minivan were flat, it still managed to make it to the intersection. However, the scene before him forced Zhang Ziwen to brake. Ahead, several heavy-duty riot control vehicles had blocked the road, with dozens of police cars behind, their red and blue lights flashing dramatically. Hundreds of police officers hid behind these cars, their guns all aimed at the van driven by Zhang Ziwen. Several vehicles had already caught up from behind, cutting off the minivan's retreat. Zhang Ziwen found himself surrounded.
"Zhang Ziwen, you are surrounded. We order you to get out of the vehicle and surrender immediately, in order to be dealt with leniently." The voice from the loudspeaker carried authority and deterrence.
