Four Arrested Following Vehicle Pursuit Shots Fired.

[DeadeyeChrista'sdad]

This has been happening up here in Lake county almost daily
Car jackings and stolen vehicle pursuits. Been a few ending in shots fired. 9 time out of 10 the perps are from Illinois

That can't be right..... Are you sure you didn't mean Cook county and Indiana?

How about putting up a warning when posting mug shots like that? Geez, those mugs need to be in a monster movie.
Good lord!

On second thought.

Nope. Lake County, Indiana. Just had a Chase last week that ended up crashing into a shop across the street from where I work and the runner taking an ambulance ride after being extricated. Not sure if that one made it.

Working in Gary and we have off duty cops for security. One of them caught a car thief running by the job site 2 days ago.
Had him face down in a snow bank till the on duty guys showed up

Dirty swine! Why didn’t he invite him in for hot tea? The NERVE!!!!! The poor individual may contract frostbite from the egregious handling he received at the hands of the .gov minion. Reparations are in order!

Where'd they find all that ammo to waste and how were they able to afford it?

They probably got the ammo when they peacefully borrowed the firearm from the owner.

What i don't understand is their thinking they can out run radios and 20+ law enforcement chasing them.

How many actually get away when they run like this? It can't be to many.

It happens, sometimes.

More often than you might like to think. A friend of mine was hit by a drunk driver that they called off the chase for a few years back as the chase was getting "too dangerous". Totalled his bird.

My youngest son a few years back was hit by a drunk driver, had witnesses they couldn't find him. Luckily my boy survived with just a broken collarbone and some bruises. I was shaken up. The Deputy told me he was at the hospital none life threatening. When I got to the scene and seen his car I was really worried. Thank God though he got very lucky. All we know is the color and that it was an suv. I spent a month driving back roads around the country. I wanted my lbs of flesh. The guy was lucky I didn't find him. I won't get into details. Anyway the boy had to fight with his insurance company car and health insurance and still ended up $8,000 in the hole.
The jerk that hit him probably had his suv fixed and painted within a week or less is what I came to conclusion.

It seems to be the thought process they use.. thugs must have some logic that we don’t understand.. or thinning out the herd?? Not sure but it’s great that no officers were not seriously injured and the uhh.. people were apprehended

Why not take the chance they knew they would end up in jail before the day was over if they didn't get away. There was a time that they would have paid more of an immediate price for being involved in a high speed chase and shooting at officers but sadly those days are gone.
Anyone notice a recurring theme, all males under 30.. The lack of respect and stupid is strong in this age group.

I'm glad he made it out with so little damage because that looks a lot worse than what he got. I definitely understand the shell shock from seeing that. Drunk drivers are something I've never dealt with in what society might call a healthy way.

Charges like that only comes from having a good prosecutor to work with.
