Police chase I witnessed this morning (Preston + Alpha)

[-]

misterblackvenom@reddit

they were chasing that dude from allllll the way in farmers branch i’m guessing, because that’s farmers branch pd

[-]

misterblackvenom@reddit

oh I know… i’m over in that area all the time when i work in dfw

[-]

misterblackvenom@reddit

I probably should have added the /s but alas (I go to that QT often when i’m up there)

[-]

That's a 711 homeslice, I was chilling in my truck drinking my coffee about 20 feet from this. I live a few blocks north from there, close to Beltline off Preston. My address is Dallas but across the street is Addison city limits, Farmers Branch is right past Addison, but I still have no idea where that delivery truck came from. I was listening to a podcast and just heard the sirens and that truck blow through the parking lot, I didn't see which direction they came in. It was a wild sight.

I was at the QT and it blew through there first. So my guess is it turned in qt from alpha, exited near the Taco Bell (I can confirm that), then went across Preston to the 711, then by the looks of it out onto alpha to turn south on Preston

misterblackvenom@reddit

Oh shit it is

josephshortino@reddit

The 7-Eleven ‘Evolution’ Store at Preston and Alpha or a QuikTrip way up in Farmers Branch?

Metalt_@reddit

That's a clean canteen truck they've got a DC in carrolton and make a lot of deliveries nearby so that tracks

Sure glad those flock cameras were there to stop this from happening

[-]

AnimatorMedical1340@reddit

Flock actually helped catch the guy

[-]

Sirsnacksalot23@reddit

Sure it wasn’t the multiple cops cars communicating with each other during the chase?

[-]

AnimatorMedical1340@reddit

Vehicle was originally located using Flock

I don’t understand why nobody talks about how creepy, invasive, and dystopian those are. We should be stopping this from happening.

sprizzle06@reddit

Allegedly they're full of copper and valuable materials. 👀 lol

mswaggg@reddit

I’m glad I’m not the only one with this thought.

What actions would you suggest "we" be doing. Besides "vote" because we've tried that.

Lot of people don’t know what they are

Too many people in this world are comfortable giving up their freedom for a misconstrued sense of security.

Nor should they be allowed to construe at all

[-]

PurpleQuantity6688@reddit

Those people should move to China, where they already have cameras watching your every move. They’re very secure over there.

easyglue@reddit

Many of them currently live in China. Nevertheless nobody should be okay with this kind of dystopian surveillance.

[-]

Self-Comprehensive@reddit

They're not shooting or ramming the truck so he's only got one star. If he goes off-road and parks behind a building for minute he ought to be fine

[-]

OldTough9446@reddit

I’d like to see how it all ended.

[-]

Bet that Canteen driver doesn't leave his keys in the ignoring during a delivery anymore!

[-]

BigNastyG817@reddit

Yeah he got fired.

[-]

Realistic-Fortune828@reddit

That wouldn't happen with Delio Vending

[-]

9bikes@reddit

Bet he's a former Canteen driver by now.

[-]

Same-Entertainer7428@reddit

That 992 Turbo S at the end, tho…

[-]

Snobolski@reddit

Can't tell, is it straddling the white line? Surely a cop could've stopped to ticket it.

[-]

Beckks34@reddit

I was pumping gas right next to you in the black Nissan & saw you filming this! Genius that u pulled out camera in time to get him speed thru the gas station. I can’t find anything about how it ended

zoolak@reddit (OP)

Haha what a wild experience! I can’t believe I was able to get my camera out in time, it all happened so fast.

Haven’t heard or seen anything about it in the news either

[-]

StuckInTheMiddleSeat@reddit

The handling on that thing is insane!

[-]

ecodrew@reddit

Running from the cops is never a good idea... But, doing so in a big, clunky box truck is hilarious.

[-]

Toughest vehicles GM ever built right there!

Looks like a 2 star wanted level. I was about to say 3 but I don't see any helicopters

Default1355@reddit

Oh nah they were just escorting him to the hospital since his wife was pregnant

[-]

Beckks34@reddit

No helicopter when he sped thru 7-11

I’m glad I moved from that area. It went downhill in the past couple of years

Anyone else rooting for the white truck?

That’s the big 7Eleven store. Lots of people walking around, crazy.

[-]

GrapeApeTX@reddit

I was driving down midway this morning after dropping my child off at school. The truck was driving south in the north bound lanes. He passed right in front of me when he turned into the neighborhood just before Harvest Hill.

Crazy!!

[-]

playballer@reddit

Crazy. I was in the QT parking lot when they zipped through it but couldn’t see where they went. I was in my car, parked, scrolling on my phone then just a moment later (30-60 seconds maybe) a dude comes running on foot up to my driver door from around the building, bangs on my window to open it, and I just reached down and locked my doors and waved at him to go away while my brain was thinking “oh shit this dude bailed and is trying to get my ride”. He gave up quick and disappeared. I had thought he was probably unrelated just a normal beggar that’s common at that store, just more aggressive… Now that I see this I wonder if he bailed out of the back of that truck!?!
