Fleeing Felon Bursts Into Flames After Getting Tased

FIREBALL!

One minute you’re on your motorcycle with the wind in your hair, fleeing cops at over 100 miles per hour, and suddenly, BOOM! You look like a Buddhist monk with an ax to grind.

Dash-cam video has surfaced of a highspeed chase on October 13 at roughly 1:11 a.m. involving Arkansas State Troopers and a man on a motorcycle who refused to pull over.

A state trooper noticed the motorcycle didn’t have a license plate so the cop lit him up—oops, I mean turned on his police lights. The biker decided to hit the blast and a high-speed pursuit began. The motorcycle was clocked at one point doing 120 miles per hour. The nearly 10-minute chase took place on side streets and three interstates. The biker blew off stop signs and red lights and even drove into oncoming traffic to dodge the cops.

The biker eventually fled into a residential neighborhood where he ditched his sport cycle and apparently thought—even though he couldn’t lose the cops on a motorcycle—he could perhaps outrun them.

FACT-O-RAMA! The Darwin Awards pay homage to people who die as a result of spectacularly stupid ideas. The biker you are reading about survived, and may only receive an honorable mention. Whereas I want to say that resisting arrest never really works out well and motorcycles can go places police cars can’t. Deciding to flee on foot is one of several insanely stupid ideas the biker came up with that night.

that’s what you call a HOT PURSUIT....who would have known that carrying a can of gas on your back will explode when tasered.

The man said, “I can’t breathe” (where did we hear that one before?). Another cop responded with, “None of us can, put your hands behind your back!”

Burnt dog hair smells awful.

Yeah….Don’t they always blame the cops for their stupid behavior?

He only gets an honorable mention if his gonads were fried.

I like to watch "Code Blue Cam" on YouTube. The first thing absolutely every black arrestee, when being arrested says, is "I can't breathe!".

Back in May a similar incident happened at a gas pump in Florida.

Not to worry. "State Farm is there".

Those who fail to think before taking action stupidity has no limits.

Bill Cosby wasn’t the only person who’s their father called him Jesus Christ.
