I-95 from New York to Miami, FL is always loaded with drug runners, car thieves and assorted other felonious riff-raff. Law enforcement can't stop them all, but sometimes they get lucky, often putting themselves in severe danger.
About 7 p.m. last night, a Dorchester County Sheriff's Deputy attempts a traffic stop on I-95 southbound in Nowheresville, SC.
The vehicle in question, a black Acura, initially slows down upon being lit up by the cruiser, but must have decided hauling ass was better. The chase was on. Pursuit speed ran as high at 100 m.p.h. and the jack offs must have stupidly thought shooting at cops would aid in their getaway. Well, we know that only serves to piss off the police even more.
The occupants open the sun roof of the Acura and start firing at pursuing police cars, actually striking a cruiser 2 times. What generally happens during a police pursuit when the occupants are shooting at police, is that there will be a copious amount of pretty little blue lights on your ass until you go down. That's just what happened. Different jurisdictions will come out of the woodwork to assist in any way they can. You just don't shoot at the po-po and expect to get away with it.
One Deputy "PITs" the Acura, forcing it to go off the road, rolling over. Unbelievably, the occupants aren't so injured that they can't come out of an over-turned vehicle shooting and running. They didn't get very far. The stretch of road where they crashed is a bit desolate and heavily wooded. K-9 officers made short order of locating our 2 perps. Charges of Attempted Murder, Failing to Stop for Police and Possession of a Stolen Motor Vehicle should keep their worthless asses in jail for awhile.
The most amazing part -- not one single shot was fired by police. One Deputy suffered minor injuries after the car wreck and we wish him a speedy recovery. As for the scumbags.....well, do we care?
As of yet, no dashboard video or radio transmission has been released, but when and if it is, I'll certainly post it.

DIZAYUMM!!!!! and that is all I have to say about this story!
Good thing they weren't shooting at officers from some of our more 'politically correct' agencies around here. I think think of three that would have terminated the pursuit. Those same three would have immediately fired any officer who let the term P.I.T. Maneuver even pop into his head.
Good Job.
