Perhaps the best thing about the surreal incident caught on film between an alleged car thief, reportedly and seemingly high on drugs, and local police officers, which took place on the streets of Astoria in Queens, New York, is that no one was killed or injured – we say this, because it could have easily tipped one way or the other.

Even though cops and locals surrounded the suspected thief in the green Dodge Caravan, he just wouldn’t give up and tried to forcefully wiggle his way out of the jam, smashing cars, buildings and endangering the lives of many people in the process.

In the end, he jumped out and tried to make a run for it but he was quickly apprehended.
