It’s not everyday you see a man steal a Hummer limousine. And it’s especially rare to see the thief then bail from the vehicle and run naked through the streets. And finally, the odds would really be stacked against you if you saw that man get taken down by a police dog. However, that’s exactly the video we have for you.
The incident happened recently in Irvine, California. The Daily Mail explains:
Somewhere along the drive, the man had removed his clothes – as he jumped out the car fully naked.
‘He came to a stop, he’s bailed,’ an officer is heard saying as he watches the man from the helicopter. Then, in shock, he adds: ‘He’s naked!’
Waving his arms, the alleged thief sprinted through a residential area but was promptly captured by a police dog, who tackled him to the ground.
The German Shepherd managed to hold the man at bay until two officers restrained him and took him away.
The man was the lone occupant of the vehicle.
‘Only the driver was in the limousine when the man pointed a gun at him,’Irvine police spokeswoman Lieutenant Julia Engen told MailOnline.
He immediately got out and turned the car over.
‘We alerted nearby authorities and turned the pursuit over to the California Highways Patrol when the vehicle went into the area of Whittier.
‘We cannot tell you why he was not wearing clothes. All we know is that he was wearing them at the original crime so took them off along the way.’

When the terms, “Naked” and “Police dog” are used in the same sentence,
you can bet it’s not going to end well.

Dec. 12, 2011 at 12:45pmThis story did not have to be illustrated.
Again theblaze is featuring a picture of a naked man because that is what appeals to it’s primarily male Republican readership.

Dec. 12, 2011 at 12:53pmAre you calling Republicans ‘gay’, using the term to mock them? I thought you libs were all for gay pride, gay rights…gay everything? Don’t you have it twisted around?

Dec. 12, 2011 at 1:40pmTypical moronic liberal post. Your glaring stupidity is eclipsed only by your limited view of the world outside your progressive bubble. Keep posting, the comic relief of your liberal viewpoint, juxtaposed against the serious crimes of hijacking and armed robbery involved is quite demonstrative of the shallow, unintelligent and vitriolic nature of modern liberalism. You are the poster child for what is wrong with America. Here’s laughing AT you not with you.

Dec. 12, 2011 at 3:19pmWe conservatives enjoy a good laugh now and then – especially when the stupidity and/or lewdness of a liberal/progressive is blatantly expressed.

Dec. 12, 2011 at 1:44pmHmmmm, naked guy vs. police dog, where is the smart money bet on THAT match up?
Never give a 3ft meat grinder an extra appendage to grab hold of, ever.
At least they couldn’t arrest the guy for concealed carry. I wonder if alcohol or drugs were involved .. . naaahhh.
