Dilan Çıtak hits Police officer in Bodrum—shots fired to stop her
ALBAWABA - Dilan Çıtak caused chaos in Bodrum after hitting a police officer and defying stop orders. This afternoon in Bodrum, a shocking event happened: Dilan Çıtak, the daughter of famous Turkish singer İbrahim Tatlıses, got into a fight with police after allegedly breaking the law and trying to leave the scene of the crime. The argument got so bad that cops had to shoot in the air to stop her. At the Yeni Hastanesi intersection on Atatürk Boulevard in the Konacık area, the dramatic event took place. Witnesses and early police accounts say that Çıtak was seen driving a pickup truck in the emergency lane, which is a very bad thing to do. When police arrived and asked to see her driver's license and car registration, she reportedly refused to cooperate and tried to drive off. Photo from social media In a shocking change of events, Çıtak is said to have sped her car toward one of the officers who had told her to stop. They made contact, which immediately raised concerns about public safety. Quickly, the cops pulled out their weapons and told her to get out of the car. Instead of following the instructions, she allegedly started the car again, which caused police to fire warning shots into the air to keep her from getting away and to protect people nearby. The situation quickly got the attention of the media, and several reporters showed up on the scene. It was said that Çıtak got angry at reporters for filming the event because they looked upset. In a strange series of events, she got out of her truck, quickly got into another car, then went back to her own truck and locked herself inside. Several police teams showed up to keep the scene under control. In the end, the police were able to get Çıtak to get out of the car. She was taken to the local police station to be questioned by a police officer in her truck. Many people are reacting to what happened, and many are wondering why Çıtak was acting that way and why she didn't seem to care about police power. At this point, neither İbrahim Tatlıses nor Dilan Çıtak has made an official comment. As the study goes on, legal action is likely to follow.
