"moving in a suspicious way," "it took off and hit the truck at the intersection."
They did not want to see the kobanites at all cost, perhaps must have been doing or had something very suspicious.

The TV news reader used the term "fusshin shario" to indicate a suspicious vehicle. Police wanted to question the driver, and given the early hour, the driver was probably not on his way to work. Vehicle involved is a late model 4-door sedan, black body colour, possibly a Toyota Crown Majesta or Athlete, and has heavily-tinted windows.

First off, what is "a suspicious way?" Second, the police go on patrol? Since when? Third, clearly they were doing naughty things in there.
