Devin recaps watching the chase end when the driver ran out of gas and fled into a 99 Cent Store, with cops finally swarming in front of shoppers, and everyone disappointed nobody got shot.

In this bit8 moments
  • Watched the chase for 45 minutes straight, guy driving on sidewalks and wrong sides of the freeway, all around LA with barely any traffic.
  • Tim thinks the whole thing was a PSYOP, fake with extras, and the police were overplaying their hand—no real aggression, kept failing at pit maneuvers and backing off.
  • The guy finally just drives down the freeway at 100 mph, pulls off at a 99-cent store, and makes a run for it inside.
  • Tim joked this was the third craziest thing that happened at that 99-cent store that day, while people scattered running out because they felt hunted.
  • The suspect runs into the 99-cent store, leaves his girlfriend behind—Tim thinks the guy was expecting the cops to let him pump gas and grab coffee like they were babysitting him.
  • Cops finally enter the 99-cent store to grab him after 5 or 10 minutes, while shoppers are just trying to buy stuff surrounded by guns drawn.
  • Tim's friend says thank God no one got hurt, and Tim responds he actually wanted to see the guy shot in the face with headshots and bullets.
  • Tim wanted to see the suspect get out with two guns and start firing at the LAPD just to hear what the Fox 11 newscasters would say about it.
