No doubt. Call 911 and follow discretely from a distance. Let the professionals handle the takedown.

What's his INGO handle?

Kick ass!

Say what you want. He got the job done.

Not sure I'd wreck my own car while trying to recover a family members car... Follow yes, wreck? Very doubtful!

I agree. Why would you risk all of the damage just to get the car back? I wouldn't do that unless the situation called for it like, a person being taken or car jacked.


Edit: The last I heard, the police were still trying to decide if the pursuer should be charged with something.

I'm with Yep. Yes, he got the job done, but I'm reminded of movies such as Lethal Weapon where the good guy prevailed after doing something stupid. (and of course got chewed out by superiors) If this was a life safety issue like a kidnapping, sure. But doing this for "stuff"? Not worth it IMHO. You can buy another car, call it in/follow so it gets recovered by IMPD, etc.


He's damned lucky Mr. Dindu Nuttin didnt make a furtive move to cause him to discharge his weapon into him.

It wasn't me.


I would of set the cruise control.

Shoot out my uncle's car tires and rear window.

Tie my steering wheel off with my seat belt.

Jump from the roof of my car to the other.

Shoot out the tires on my car.

Tactical reload.

Climb in the car through the window I already shot out.

Shoot the rest of tires.

Put on my seat belt in the back seat.

Choke out the driver with his seatbelt, hope we don't hit a bridge embankment and wait for the calvary.

In a situation like this you shoot out the tires to act as a dynamic breaking system. At the lower speeds, it puts the operation into the acceptable risk category.

This operation is not optimal at rush hour on 465. If Hoosier's would stop being backwoods rednecks and learn to zipper merge then the back up would be minimal.

Another thing that would help with the flow of traffic is if dumbass drivers would stop switching lanes and slowing down just because there is emergency personel on the highway working.

I'm with you up to the zipper merge.

That adds an unacceptable level of risk to an otherwise well thought out plan.

This reminded me of some dialogue in Pulp Fiction where John Travilta said it would have been worth an **s hole keying his car, just to catch the guy doing it.
Lance: Still got your Malibu?<br> Vincent: Aw, man. You know what some f***er did the other day?<br> Lance: What?<br> Vincent: ****ing keyed it.<br> Lance: Oh, man, that's f***ed up.<br> Vincent: Tell me about it. I had it in storage for three years,

zipper is great. But much like other things in the world, it just doesnt work unless EVERYONE is onboard. a couple a-holes will keep it from working right.

 

[Snipercop]

Saw that on the news last night. Good it turned out the way it did. Wouldn't advise my family or any citizen to do it, but he got it done!

This is the best use of the tactical reload that I have seen.

Zipper merges can be painful. ..

Oh, but it only works if people are smart enough to hit the interstate actually moving with the speed of traffic, not slowing everybody down, then cutting off two lanes of traffic to try and pass that semi 100' before your exit... Oh, and stop hitting your ****ING BRAKES GETTING ON THE DAMN HIGHWAY! The peddle on the right will get you on there easier!

Two criminal charges were also filed Monday against Rodriguez - criminal recklessness with a firearm and criminal recklessness with a motor vehicle. Both are felonies.

Boo.
