This Shocking Camaro Chase Ended With A Hail Of Bullets
Warning: Although the content of this video is not graphic, it does show the moment officers unload their weapons on the vehicle.
The incredible footage above was captured from the dashcams of several Seattle police vehicles during a shocking chase on 6th December. Police initially responded to reports of a man with a gun in a coffee shop, however when officers showed up the suspect fled out the back of the building and stole a “red Volkswagen” at gunpoint. He then drove to another area of the city, before stealing another car, believed to be the Chevrolet Camaro in the dashcam footage.
During the pursuit, the suspect drove the wrong way along busy streets and fired on officers, who eventually stopped the car by ramming the Chevrolet head-on. With the car’s front end smashed to pieces and airbags deployed, it is surrounded by a number of police with guns drawn. Incredibly, the Camaro is still operational, and reverses onto the pavement. As soon as it begins to move towards the officers, they unload their weapons on the vehicle. 11 officers fired weapons at the Camaro, and all have been placed on paid administrative leave while an investigation takes place.
The suspect, known only as ‘a man in his 30s’, was killed at the scene.

So that Toyota RAV4 that was hit… was it a good idea for the driver to leave that car there and run away from the madness on foot? I wonder if it would be safer to drive away to a safe place…
looked exactly like gta
She was probably so panicked she forgot to drive, not even trying to be funny this could happen.
Yes, if you noticed she was covered by the police and they told her to get out
She was a young girl, most likely panicked, because suddenly somebody crashed into him while texting, and than ran away. The only reason I wouldn’t have done the same, is because I wouldn’t leave my car there :D
Well, she got to safety before they started shooting. Form the alternate point of view at the end of the clip, it can easily be assumed that one of the bullets could’ve hit her in her car. And how would you drive away? By running over a cop?Furthermore, if she drove off, she would leave a space for the d-bag to get out.
This was in Seattle? Seattle people drive priuses and listen to NPR, not go carjacking and gunfighting.
I spotted several neat little Subies and a Camaro in this video :P
Oh my gosh this comment couldn’t be more accurate, I’m cracking up 😂
I like how even though the car was wrecked he still managed to do doughnut at the end.
And I thought that all the GTA police chases were not realistic. O_O
