The man stole the ambulance about 10:55 p.m. from Research Medical Center, near Prospect Avenue and East Meyer Boulevard.
Police pursued the ambulance and eventually used stop sticks, which caused the suspect to crash into a light pole at East 67th Terrace and Cleveland Avenue.
The man was taken into custody.

Anyone remember the game “Spy Hunter” where you were in a car that could drop oil slicks and smoke clouds?
Now the Police can drop “stop sticks” from the back of their car while driving it.
Cue theme song from “Spy Hunter”!!!

Thanks for the post.
I had lost track of my fraternity brother. Let's see, he'd be about 70 now.... still tweaking the noses of those in authority!
He'll get double secret probation for this!

(most likely) Misdemeanor DUI turns into felony theft and evasion along with the DUI.
All together now--what's his DU name?

All is very clear now. It was all a desperate attempt to escape the stray rounds impacting the area.
