Police in Peel, Canada, just outside Toronto, answered a call about a suspicious Ford Bronco at a Tim Horton’s drive-thru. They located the vehicle and determined that it had been stolen. Officers surrounded the stolen vehicle with a number of cruisers, boxing in the suspect. An officer then got out of his vehicle and pointed a gun at the driver. That’s when the Bronco accelerated forward, attempting to drive over a police cruiser to escape. It didn’t work. He made it as far as the hood of the car, shattering the windshield. The driver eventually climbed out of the passenger-side window, and officers then tased and tackled him. The scene unfolded on a warm evening while it was still light out, before a crowd of onlookers.
* …who all said, “Cool, eh?”
* Except for the customers in the drive-thru lane honking at police to get out of the way. Canadians do love their Tim Horton’s.
* Sorry, pal, Ford Broncos are okay, but they’re no Monster Trucks.
* You try to be fast and furious, you end up shocked and stymied.
