Car Theft Suspect Pulled from Water After Fleeing Law Enforcement
A suspect who was allegedly found near a stolen Chevrolet Cavalier around 12:50 p.m. on Marshal Lane in the Hoopa area is on his way to Mad River Hospital after fleeing police and jumping into a flooded waterway. According to Sgt. Brian Lale of the California Highway Patrol, one of his department’s officers was sent to check out a possibly stolen vehicle. When the officer arrived, there were two suspects on scene. One fled in a white pickup.
According to Lale, at 12:58 p.m the suspect that fled jumped into a waterway. (He wasn’t sure which waterway.) The male suspect was eventually recovered from the water and, at 3:05, was taken to Mad River Hospital.
The other occupant of the previous stolen vehicle was also arrested and in the vehicle there was a firearm, said Lale.

From 12:58 p.m. to 3:05 p.m. is a long time to be in the water.
Perhaps 3:05 was when he was delivered to MRH, which would make his little swim quite a bit shorter.
A Cavalier! Wow! Grand theft baller! Lol
That’s funny!!
My car of choice. LOL
Couldn’t find a Dodge K car?
Dude? Where’s my Yugo?
He would have been rescued faster if he hadn’t refuse to get in the rescue boat! Some peoples kids! JEEZ!!!
Buddy kinder did not flee away in his white truck it was very obvious he was let go. He’s a well known snitch here in hoopa too. No surprise they said he fled in the police report. He also literally lives two driveways away from where the scene took place.
