Reality TV: Viewer videoing car chase on television suddenly sees it outside window

View more videos at: http://nbclosangeles.com.

NBC4 viewer Jason Lee was shooting video of a pursuit on our 11 p.m. newscast Sunday when the pursuit came to him.


At least a half-dozen patrol cars pursued the suspect behind the wheel of a stolen Toyota Camry as it weaved through L.A. and Hawthorne for two hours.

It ended in Inglewood when the driver -- a boy -- finally gave up. Authorities aren’t releasing his age.

He was booked into custody on charges including car theft and assault with a deadly weapon.

This is why the police should have drones. They could track this guy, undetected by the criminal, without the high-speed chase, all the way to his front door.

Alternatively, they could launch a Hellfire missile and blow him to pieces....

Well, I read in my little backwoods town's newspaper yesterday that the sheriff's deputy laid down one of those spike blankets to stop a arrest evader, isn't it strange that the sticks have them but la doesn't?

      There are enough chases in LA they could just have remote controlled spike strips installed every few blocks.

      But that video is pretty cool.

          Just think. The state of Texas is almost a Blue state with all their voters. that could be the end of the Republican party.

            Remember when CEO's made just 6 to 7 times their workers. Not thousands of times more. That is when America worked. That is before Ronald Reagan decided to quit the Democratic party and become a Bought out Republican and make all his weapons friends billionaires.

              Trickle it down to us on the bottom. The middle class wages have went up .7 % since but the one percent has gone up 275%. Yet Fox and racial hatred has indoctrinated so many mentally dejected.

              If you listen to the newscaster, he says they've taken this route several times. My guess is it's really happening, but the person decided to video it after a few rounds. The only "fake" part is the reaction -- he expected it and has already seen it a few times.

                The end of the Republican party just think. Then we could buid a country that depends on and cares about the well being of our people. We could get rid of those who make obscene amounts of money and sieze their assets because like Jefferson and Madison and Franklin said , Obscene wealth would only contribute to the destruction of a democracy, but in their own words that said the same.

                  Then our people could create employee owned businesses that everyone who belongs to it shares in the wealth like my little business. Get rid of the greedy bastards that make are people work for less than a living wage, and restrict hours in order to not pay health benefits. then go after the bloated healthcare industry and make them come down to reality or be gone.

                  It is called a great America where we can all work towards health and financial well being for our country. Stop putting labels on everything.

                    When one party tries to stop everything the other party tries to offer, like 378 filibusters have done. It should be time for America to stand up and end it's involvement and its venomous media and make this country what it should be.

                        I wish that "Report This Item As: Spamming a thread" was an option. Instead I had to go with "No Value" considering this person has commented ten times at the root level of this thread, spamming the heck out of it.
