SPRINGFIELD, Mo.-- A strange video surfaced on the internet Wednesday showing a suspicious car appear from the woods along Kearney Street as President Donald Trump's motorcade passes by.
At about 1:15 into the video a white car appears from a wooded area onto the street as President Trump's motorcade goes by.
The man who took the video Clayte Hefner, was outside his work and took the video just trying to catch the motorcade.
Hefner said he saw two women inside the car as it rolled out of the woods. The car hit the ditch and was disabled.
Hefner said the secret service quickly came in and apprehended the two women. They were seen later put into the back of a secret service car.
Springfield police said no arrests were made during Wednesday's event.
I saw the other thread on this - I bet those women have had an “interesting” evening and their life histories are known to the Secret Service by now.
And the car’s probably had a good going over as well.
Where were the helicopters that should’ve been overhead to spot this type of threat?
Did you read the article? It explains everything.
Leave it to a media organization from the Ozarks to get not just one, but 2 words wrong in the headline.
it’s pretty funny that the original story was edited 21 minutes after posting, but they still didn’t catch the misspelled ‘breaks’ in the sub-headline
The article says the woman’s brakes failed as she was trying to exit some parking lot and she rolled through the trees and into the ditch. Weird timing, but I imagine the Secret Service has checked it out by now.
“Springfield police said the woman’s brakes malfunctioned as she was coming out of the Bass Pro call center and warehouse on Kearney St.”
This is interesting. I had cut and pasted the article that is here. Apparently, they must have subsequently updated the report and talked about the brakes. Yes, I did read the article I posted prior to the update.
I wondered the same. As a side note, I should have finished the novel I began 17 years ago but lost in a computer crash. Someone could have been in a foxhole along the route and been able to hide from FLIR of the helicopters. Just some plywood over the foxhole/bunker and cover it with tinfoil. No heat signature detected from the Forward Looking InfraRed.
ROFLOL!!
It happened in 2 seconds. A helicopter would have done little or nothing to prevent it in this case. However if Trump was indeed the target and they’d made it past the ditch, their vehicle would likely have been sawed in half by ground fire by the time it got close to the principal.
Hi Doug, 300 game yet?

I wonder if she'd thought to use her emergency brake when her brakes failed.
Two Saturdays ago back to back 289 and 299. A 10 pin on 2nd ball in 10th in first game; a 4 pin on last ball in 2nd game.
Many times the president is not in the motorcade. The vehicle that is supposed to be carrying POTUS is sometimes a decoy.
Sum total of I.Q. readings on both = 85
85!!!
Where’d I get the sandwich? From my pocket.
How’d I go get coffee? I went out the window.
Why didn’t you go out the front door?
The door? Why would I use the door when the window’s right here?
