I thought they weren't showing car chases live anymore because it encouraged people. I guess ratings were bad. Not anymore though.

YES. It does not matter what the car is. A carjacker should be eliminated.

Saw it on tv, but haven't read about it yet. I sure hope they had a good backstop. That looked like a lot of rounds sent downrange.

That announcer in the helicopter pretty much sums it up. "Whoa, whoa, whoa!"

Armed and dangerous.
Cops live in a world of probability, whereas we live in a world of possibility.

I'm thinking he wasn't a real car buff looking to add to his collection. More likely he needed a ride badly and grabbed the first schit box that crossed his path.

That Saturn will definitely not buff out.
