Ran from police. Ran a stop sign and hit multiple vehicles.

They were being pulled over for driving recklessly and the pursuit ended moments after as they ran from police.

"They were both wearing helmets, but both helmets came off during impact," Troyer said. "Both bounced of multiple vehicles and roadways and were killed instantly due to their high rate of speed."


Idiots.

I can't wait to get the dash cam. Seeing those idiots ping pong off of cars would be oddly satisfying.

We all need to add more dashcams to our vehicles like in Russia.
Missed some cool footage of darwin appointees...

I guess it could have been WAY worse. I mean they could have had a gun pointed at them then been chewed out by an angry off duty detective.

Update:

PCSO (Not TPD) initiated a traffic stop, bike fled, PCSO did not pursue, and less than 30 seconds later the bike ran a 4-way stop and wrecked at 90+ MPH.

Bikers were late 30's early 40's, no ID....
Bike was repainted/modified and had VIN removed.

Sounds like tweakers and a stolen motorcycle.

Back in the day cops would ram the bike's rear fender.
Then hopefully slam on the brakes so they didn't drive over the bike and rider.
