the car. It looked like a pit maneuver. So now the driver is out. The suspect is out and now on foot. We've seen people do this hide under car. Look, he's cornered here with the police and now yeah, right here. It's crazy how they still try to hide under vehicles and behind vehicles. Looks like that is working though. Oh wow. The cops are actually running past the suspect. I was ahead. Hopefully somebody's communicating to them on the ground. You can see look how they're now they're running past the car again. Is he still I think it's not unless he's close. Cat and mouse game here. Wow. Look at that going in the vehicle. Is he still there? He's still there laying lying down lying flat. Yeah, he's there. So how does the communication work? Because you would think that you know Chopper would be, you know, in communication with the officers. OK, there we go. Clearly they have talked to him now. That was twice where they passed the suspect. His gun is drawn. Yeah. OK, they still can't see him. Look to the right. Oh. That was wild to see. Wow. Like I said, it's almost like cat and mouse where we see the mouse. Yeah. The cats, you know, took a while to get them. Thankfully, it wasn't any kind of tense situation. He was just lying in wait and had no weapons. And now they're taking him down.
