On Tuesday afternoon, a guy allegedly shoplifted from a Home Depot in Glendora, California. And he sped off when the cops came . . . so a classic southern California police chase was ON.
But this one had a twist. At one point, the guy pulled into a gas station to fill up. And he even ran into the station to pay.
He filled up with a little gas before the police could get there . . . and then he took off again. He drove for more than an HOUR after that until he finally pulled into a parking garage near downtown Los Angeles and ran off on foot.
There’s no word on whether the cops ever wound up catching him.
WATCH LIVE: Only in LA. The driver in a police pursuit manages to stop at a gas station and fill up, apparently getting the cash discount, too. https://t.co/gpe5mIcgXd pic.twitter.com/wsNb00JIQG
