Just For Fun, Let’s Recap the 2016 Hollywood, CA Police Chase
(Yes, I watched the whole 1 hour feed from Fox 10. That’s how my life is going right now)
Here are the Highlights of the most interesting car chase I’ve watched:
- Whole chase caught on Fox 10’s helicopter
- Fox 10 Female Anchor 1: “Not to quote Donald Trump, but this makes you want to punch someone in the face”
- Suspects doing donuts in the streets of Hollywood (as seen in the above image)
- Female Anchor 2: “They’re on their phones”. Female Anchor 1: “They’re driving on Hollywood Blvd, probably Tweeting out.” Female Anchor 2: “They’re saying, ‘Turn on Fox 10, we’re on TV, mom’.”
- Suspects passing the Hollywood Walk-of-Fame
- Female Anchor 1: “They’re going down the wrong lane, right on Hollywood Blvd!”
- Suspects bust through a huge intersection right before Mann’s Theater, while the cross-traffic has the right-of-way
- Suspect passenger stands in car while driver is hauling a$$ through the city
- When traffic stops, suspect just hops the curb and drives down the sidewalk
- Female Anchor 1: “If they really cared about making the news, they wouldn’t be driving in the tree line area”
- Female Anchor 1: “If you’re just joining us, there’s a couple of yahoos who stole a Mustang”
- Suspects pop a curb when no one was around, damaging front passenger tire — way to go
- Female Anchor 1: “I think the world is watching and saying ‘we are looking at two huge losers’.”
- Female Anchor 1: “If someone did not know the police were on this and decided to stop these jack*sses with their car”
- Female Anchor 1: “We have two suspects in a stolen convertible Mustang, who did not know how to put the top up and it’s raining”
- Suspect passenger sits on car door while driving weird on city streets
- As the suspects come up behind the TMZ Tour Bus on the highway: Female Anchor 2: “There’s the TMZ Tour Bus!” Female Anchor 1: “Perfect! We’re going to see this on TMZ”. *TMZ Tour Bus pulls in front of the car, attempting to stop them, and stops on the highway. Both Anchors: “Whoa!!! Woohoo!” Female Anchor 1: “Go TMZ!” *Whole Fox 10 Studios cheers. *Suspect passenger throws trash at TMZ Bus and driver backs up to drive around the bus. Female Anchor 1: “It doesn’t get more Hollywood than that”
- Suspect passenger threatening more highway cars with trash
- Female Anchor 1: “I wish that cement truck would get involved”
- Female Anchor 2: “I bet their mom’s are proud”
- Female Anchor 2: “We got 2 PD helicopters overhead, the Sheriff’s needed to get gas”
- Driver gives PD the bird when they tried to put down spike strips
- *Car chase live video gives way to Live Ford and American Idol Photoshoot, originally scheduled for that time, Female Anchor 2: “Can we get our car chase back!” “We are very excited about American Idol tonight on Fox 10, however…”
- Female Anchor 1: “We have low clouds today, so if you have any weekend plans…”
- Suspects drive the now not-so-beautiful Mustang to meet with the 3rd suspect in the original burglary offense
- Female Anchor 1: “un-freaking-believable”
- Suspects take pictures with fans on the side of the street who have been watching or listening to their story on Fox 10
- Female Anchor 1: “this is loser-ville”, “maybe this was part of a movie that we did not realize”
- Female Anchor 2: “that passerby is just taking pictures! I cannot deal with this”, “oh, he moved the car [from the middle of the road], what a nice gentleman we have here”
- The crowd around the area becomes larger as cars stop to take pictures
- Finally law enforcement has enough officers to go in and nab them up. They apprehend the driver first, then the passenger, then they pull the third suspect out from the crowd of people
- Fans are so supportive they just videotape them being arrested with smiles on their faces
- Female Anchor 1 looking at the crowd grow, “where did all these people come from?”, “these suspects are cult heroes”
- Finally over, at 1 hour, 17 minutes
Only in America
