It’s been a dramatic week of car chases. First we had the driver who carjacked his way across LA, and now this suspect who rear-ended the wrong minivan in Dallas. The shocking footage above shows the end to a police pursuit involving a stolen Dodge Challenger.

After the Challenger hits a minivan at a junction, the driver and her boyfriend jump out and grapple with the suspect, holding him until cops arrived.

The driver’s 13-year-old son, who was in the back of the minivan at the time of the crash, was taken to hospital as a precaution but was released later that evening.

Dallas police identified the suspect as 40-year-old Artrai Alexander. He was arrested and will be charged with aggravated robbery and evading arrest.

Check out the NBCDFW report for longer footage of the aftermath and for interviews with the occupants of the minivan.
