Stolen Motorcycle Sparks A Chase: Two Wrongs Don’t Make A Right…Or Do They?

What happens when a stolen motorcycle and a reckless driver cross paths? In Tacoma recently, that very scenario led to a dramatic chase that had onlookers holding their breath. It all began when a man on a stolen motorcycle crashed into a vehicle, and instead of peacefully accepting the consequences, he took off, leading the vehicle driver on a wild goose chase. And let’s just say, this isn’t just your average car chase—things escalated quickly!

As one might expect, the driver didn’t just wave him off; he decided to chase after the motorcycle rider and even pulled out a gun during the pursuit! Talk about a twist! The motorcycle and the chasing driver then crashed again, causing even more chaos. Meanwhile, a second driver jumped in to give live updates to 911 dispatch. I mean, who doesn’t want to be involved in a two-for-one car crash situation, right?

When the dust settled, Tacoma police apprehended both the reckless rider and the armed driver. Luckily, no one was hurt, but it’s questionable whether the rider will ever think twice before making such a dangerous escape again. It’s a classic case of “you can run, but you can’t hide,” coupled with a little bit of misguided hero complex. What would you have done in their shoes? Was the pursuit worth it, or just another example of what happens when adrenaline takes the wheel?
