90 Mph Police Chase Ends With Skateboard Fail (VIDEO)



We cannot confirm whether this suspect had Doritos-flavored Mountain Dew before he fled on a skateboard.

What we do know is that the unnamed suspect took to the streets of Los Angeles last Monday, careening through traffic at 90 mph before he crashed, according to ABC-7. Lucky for us, CNN captured the whole scene on video, because it was more high-flying action than Tony Hawk on a hover board.

The chase started on Victory Boulevard at about 3:40 p.m. The suspect narrowly avoided several crashes before he finally rammed into a stopped car. CNN Video shows the suspect getting out of his vehicle carrying a longboard, which he uses in a pathetic getaway attempt.

Police were able to catch up with him when a celebrity entered the chase. Luis "Lou" Pizarro, who starred in the now-cancelled truTV show, Operation Repo, happened to be on the scene and cut off the suspect using a big red truck, CNN reports.
