OKLAHOMA CHASE SUSPECT CLOCKED AT 208 MPH

An Oklahoma man was arrested on Saturday after leading police on a chase. Nineteen-year-old Hector Fraire first tripped a radar gun doing 84 mph on the Kilpatrick Turnpike in Oklahoma City, before speeding away as police tried to pull him over. According to the Oklahoma Highway Patrol, Fraire’s heavily modified 2011 Ford Mustang was then clocked doing 176 mph, and then 208 mph. He tried to elude the chase vehicle by turning off his headlights and brake lights. As the pursuing officer lost contact with the vehicle, he radioed ahead to any units in the area. A deputy sitting in a parking lot spotted the car and was able to intercept it. Fraire then pulled over and dropped his keys out of the window. He was charged with reckless driving and felony eluding.
* Why 208 miles per hour? Because the faster you go, the sooner you’re out of Oklahoma. One way or another.
* Hector was fast, and the police were furious.
* He probably could have gotten away if he’d stuck wings on his car.
* If you’re going to go that fast, at least jump over a couple school buses.
* I could go that fast in my car … if the hill was steep enough.
* No, on second thought, if we were going that fast, my car would probably disintegrate.
* I blame that “Street Outlaws” show.
* Felony eluding? Too bad we don’t have that when these politicians answer a question.
* Oklahoma’s come a long way since the surrey with the fringe on top. (From the lyrics of the musical “Oklahoma.”)
