During the fifth episode of the RTL4 police documentary series Bureau Groningen, presenter Ewout Genemans and officers Yorick and Sezgin stopped a car in the city after the driver changed direction when he saw the patrol car.[1] A saliva test on the driver came back positive; the driver had been in contact with the police in 2025 over drug dealing and driving under the influence of drugs.[1]

The driver said he had hashish in his pocket and handed a bag of drugs to officer Sezgin, who put him in handcuffs.[1] Officers found an Action plastic bag full of drugs in the car and arrested the passenger as well.[1] The officers also found a stack of 10-euro and 20-euro banknotes in the car.[1]

Bureau Groningen airs every Thursday at 20:30 on RTL4.[1]
