The victims were repairing a moped; their car was parked right there. A man in camouflage got out of a passing car with police license plates, broke one of the guys and took the car keys. At the same time, the military man took out a pistol and, jerking the bolt, declared his readiness to open fire. Eyewitnesses to the incident tried to protect the young people by demanding that the armed man go to fight in Donbass.
Panchenko himself described the situation differently in an interview with local media.
“I was driving past, I saw several guys doing something with a moped, parts were scattered around, either disassembling or assembling. Now in the Nikolaev region the situation is such that 40% of stolen vehicles are mopeds and scooters. I decided to check, got out of the car, introduced myself and asked to see the documents for the moped,” said Vadim Panchenko.
