With tires spiked and sparks flying, the driver kept circling, taunting officers and drawing crowds of stunned witnesses. After a wild, smoke-filled dash through town, the car was finally boxed in—only for the driver to ram two police cruisers in a last-ditch escape attempt. The duo behind the wheel—a 29-year-old man and a 28-year-old woman, both already wanted—were taken down without injury, but left two patrol cars battered and facing even more charges.
