Exclamation High Speed Chase in a Wrangler??

Happy Thanksgiving to all Jeepers!!

This morning on Good Morning America they showed a clip
of a high speed chase on the highway of Florida.Culprit
was in a white Jeep Wrangler beige soft top.He shot out the
window at police,they returned fire and blew out his tires.

Jeep Wrangler hits side rails and flips several times

Culprit dies but they didn't say if it was from the roll
or
from the bullets shot by the police.

Who the heck in their right mind would do a
high speed getaway from the po-po in a Jeep Wrangler??

Half of us are scared to death to go over 65 in this buggy!!!


P.S.

I couldn't tell if it was a TJ,CJ but it wasn't a JK looked like a Sahara from the helicopter view

That was pretty nuts. I searched and found the vid of the crash at this news site.

I think there was a common flaw there.....What idiot tries to run from the police let alone shoot at them. At that point the Wrangler was just strike three.

Talk about culling of the herd. The gene pool's a little clearer now.
