Real Madrid star James Rodriguez claims he feared he was at
the centre of a kidnap plot as he fled from police in the Spanish capital.
The Colombian attempted to escape police action after
he was caught driving 200kph down a Spanish highway en route to training.
He was clocked by an unmarked police vehicle going at least
double the speed limit on Madrid’s M40 motorway.
He was followed for five kilometres to Real Madrid's
training ground where he slipped away into the car park as the club's security
dealt with the less than impressed officers.
After training, the €80m man was questioned by Spanish
police where he claimed not to have heard their sirens over his loud
music.
According to the Mirror: "He later claimed that he feared the pursuing
car was trying to kidnap him, something more common in his native Colombia,
before apologising to police".
The 24-year-old now risks losing his license and is likely
to be punished on more than one offence.
He is likely to face a fine and could end up on a
driving ban for failing to obey a police officer and a serious traffic
violation.
