Wild Video: Brazilian Police Car Chases Down & Crashes Into Drug Plane on Runway
November 03, 2011
This is one way to tackle the war on drugs.
A video out of Brazil has surfaced showing police running down a drug-running airplane on the runway. But officials don't just run the plane down. No, they run it over. Kind of -- they crash into its wing preventing it from taking off.
WTOP reports:
Check out this footage of federal police in Ribeirao Preto, just under 200 miles from Sao Paolo, as they chase down five members of a drug cartel and a pilot trying to make off with an estimated $200,000 in cargo, including electronic surveillance equipment and a bicycle.
You can see the dramatic footage below:
The assailants were arrested, taken into custody, and probably slightly embarrassed.
