Former Employee Hijacks Front Loader and Leads Police on a Slow-Speed Chase (video)

Body/dash cam video
Gwinnett County, Georgia — Saturday, March 23, at approximately 11:00 a.m.
Officers were dispatched to a dispute call at a waste management business.
The initial responding officer responded and learned that a former employee had stolen a large, yellow front loader (approx. 75,000lbs.) and was driving it around on the property.
The officer attempted to stop the vehicle, but the suspect continued driving and eventually exited to the highway. His movements were unpredictable as he navigated heavy traffic.
As other officers pursued the suspect, the initial responding officer returned to the business to get another large construction vehicle that could disable the fleeing suspect. A trash truck and another front loader were escorted by officers to the fleeing suspect several miles away.
The pursuit came to an end on Singleton Road and Robin Hill Drive when the second front loader flipped the stolen front end loader.

I figure if I’m ever gonna get got, something like that would be my style.
Nothing fast enough to possibly hurt anyone. Just piss officers off cause the thing i took can run over there police cars and that will mess their extra duty and overtime ability up.

Did a 5 year old boy come up with that solution? Let's just flip it with another one...I'm impressed.

I once knew a guy who got a DUI on a riding lawnmower but a police chase on a front loader is probably not common at all.
