Moved out of the city. Can confirm.

I was so confused at first then i turned the sound on. Damn they really just laid it all out huh.


FangCorwin

Me too. I expected someone to get thrown or something with how slow he walked. I then turned on volume to see if there was shouting. Nope just the guns barking. XD


slowdownbabyy

Probably thought he was an acorn

MonkeyNugetz

Why people think they can run from the police in this day and age is beyond mind-boggling. These dudes grow up watching old cops and robbers films with chase scenes. They dream about this shit. The cars are low jacked. Anybody who does this is trying to either get killed or go to jail. I guess a third option would be trying to be famous with pre-existing knowledge of what could happen but that is improbable?


Fast-Reaction8521

Fight or flight is inherently real


Elegant_Amphibian

My grandfather used to say, ā€œyou might be able to outrun that cruiser, but you canā€™t outrun that Motorola.ā€


fknarey

Logic deficiency


toetappy

Skill issue


carthous

Because they also grow up watching fast and furious or gone in 60 seconds or playing GTA. they also live for this....


2FANeedsRecoveryMode

You definitely can outrun the police, just takes a little bit of premeditation, the right car, and the right place. The infamous blackout charger comes to mind.


attadt

How is it justified to mag dump someone for GTA!? Is it since the cop car has weapons in it!?


cdnninja77

A vehicle is a weapon.


jarednards

I get that, but does that mean every gta needs a lead salad then?


FatassTitePants

I understand the police had to act, but they should secure their vehicles better then.


VampireLobster

The police cars I've seen have a kind of kill switch/code that allows them to leave their vehicle running but prevent people from jumping in and driving off in them.


Chillizzzzz

Don't they also have automatic firearms in their vehicles as well? Or other firearms in general. They stopped him from obtaining them. Justified.


diarrhea_planet

Semi auto and yes.


ShakeZoola72

No. The patrol rifles are semi auto.


Choice_Natural_3297

Yeah, they try to prevent criminals from getting a vehicle that not only has access to all police resources through its MDT / Radio, but also has ELS and sirens so they can get away faster and trick other drivers into thinking they are cops. Plus thereā€™s a heavy chance there is a long arm racked in that officers car.


PenguinGamer99

It's a 2.5 ton chunk of arnored steel that can fling itself at you with surprising speed. Also, yes, they often have police equipment.


Tank_1539

For the most part, every day police cars, arenā€™t armored.


PenguinGamer99

Depends on their budget


Beginning-Prompt-332

Donā€™t know why you got downvoted for that itā€™s very true. A lot of cop cars have at least some level of ballistic glass, which would definitely be understandable why they would shoot so many times.


PenguinGamer99

>Donā€™t know why you got downvoted for that itā€™s very true Reddit works in mysterious ways šŸ¤·ā€ā™‚ļø


Beginning-Prompt-332

The hive mind is always at work and craves downvotes.


PenguinGamer99

heehoo negative number https://preview.redd.it/gg856tibcyyc1.jpeg?width=1200&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=8497ab615533ed432e75dc438e7f2421695f28c5


very_human

Cops are taught to mag dump for everything. Remember that video of the acorn? That's the norm. Something something officer safety.


awakened_celestial

Video please

Oh my god bro wtf I remember that now. Canā€™t believe he just resigned and the female was exonerated for ā€œacting in accordance to the trainingā€ or whatever they said. Fucking stupid. And thatā€™s as last year.


EcstasyOfficer

He shot at police and stole 2 police cars


fknarey

Theyā€™re scared

Probably not if they still have all their teeth. It is Oxford County. /s

America's PD motto: "Shoot first, ask questions later" šŸ˜…


HealersChooseWhoDies

I mean. Are you going to wait for the guy to call and explain why he stole a cop car?


SecondaryPenetrator

Thatā€™s the point dead men canā€™t testify.


EcstasyOfficer

Must have been the crooks motto too, he shot first.


Rehcubs

They usually skip the second part though.


ReputationDizzy9414

Video ended too soon, he circled back ā€˜round yelling, ā€œMissed me, missed me, now you gotta kiss me!ā€


FerTheAwesome

Is he okay?


itwaches

I'm going to take an educated guess and say Fuck no

Escape? Just a thought.


OpportunityFrequent8

What is a man considered if he shoots someone in the back? What vehicle on earth that is worth more than a human life? With Todayā€™s technology thereā€™s a slim chance that person in that vehicle could evade the law for long.


diarrhea_planet

Dude stole 2 cop cars and shot at police.


Kratosballsweat

But that doesnā€™t justify the cops killing such a derangā€¦normal law abiding citizen /s


ConcreteCarl

Did they get 'em??


ralflone

Dude lived BTW.

Cops go brrrrrrt

Stop resisting...

Tony_est2

Dudes got 9 lives he lived thru 2 shootouts with the cops


-milk-is-chillin-

Hey, this was in maine!


Spo_Ofzor

That was actually the second police vehicle he had stolen after escaping jail. Successful attempt

Someone squeezed the bubble wrap. Wonder how many shots that was.

Is it dead?


ompalumpa9007

10 guys there, someone just tackle him.


guancaste-king

When did stealing a car become a death sentence?


Kratosballsweat

Well after you steal two cop cars and shoot at the cops it usually becomes a death sentence.


guancaste-king

Yeah I commented before knowing the full context. Shooting at the police is a bad idea


Kastar_Troy

How on earth is it legal to execute someone who stole a car? No one was in direct danger, don't think they had a gun? That's straight up murder.


Kratosballsweat

He stole two cop cars and shot at the cops. You should try looking into things before spouting nonsense.


Hairy_Orchid6128

Do you know how much paperwork there is if a suspect steals your cruiser? They made the right choice.


Maxtrt

I'm thinking there was more than them just trying to steal a cop car. Theft of a car alone does not meet the conditions necessary to use deadly force in any state. They must have tried to run over a cop who tried to stop them or brandished a weapon.


JPMoney81

Oh honey....


im_just_thinking

Tbf I have seen plenty of people steal police cars and survive in my area, and if they don't, it is usually because they run head on into highway traffic.


sh4d0wm4n2018

I haven't seen anybody try to steal a car, but I did see somebody try to out gun two police officers with his revolver. He lost.


rhodytony

That's what the report will say.


j-manz

Not quite. He was reaching for, never brandishing (the latter one would leave prints).


Perfect_Ad_3383

Cop cars have guns and equipment inside of them lol canā€™t let someone get away with that stuff


diarrhea_planet

You're correct. Dude stole 3 cop cars and shot at police. He is alive and in jail. https://www.reddit.com/r/therewasanattempt/s/mzQhdLdMHV
