High speed chase now a stand off in the OKC metro area.

This guy is nuts. He stole a black trunk with trailer last Friday. The owner's husband saw the truck this morning and called the police. And the chase was on. It has already been over two hours with the guy driving to different towns on different highways, city streets, neighborhoonds and fields. He was responsibility for three car wrecks. He managed to lose the trailer in one field. He stopped at one place to take an organge box out of the truck bed where a civilian stopped their car to try to block him in. WHen the guy took off the civilian pulled out a gun and started shooting at the back of the truck taking out a tire. They just showed a video clip of the guy who apparently was streaming on FB during the chase. Talk about bizarre. It looks like the police are moving in to try to bring it to a halt. Suspect identified and has criminal record. What a bizarre day.

rates of speed and yesterday it was a woman who stole a U-haul and at some point was banging her head on the steering wheel.
She was either on something or have a severe mental issue. It ended in the Fruit and Vegetable Market downtown where I used to live.
A cop shot at her because she rammed the truck into his car and it was getting very dangerous. They weren't sure if she was hit. If she was it wasn't life threatening because the caught her and she was standing and ranting. It was nuts!
