x2 the original story reeked of bullshit, but that makes more sense.
Alright, with some of those details it now makes more sense. The mall was 1/4 mile ahead but the guy might have blown by it and through lights/signs over that 3/4 mile distance it sprawls. Obviously, I could see a cop pulling a guy over and cuffing him quickly in that sort of scenario.
Sorry if my BS meter got pegged quickly. Just seems like there are more and more outlandish stories being posted by people on message boards these days.
