Joy rider smashes up luxury car
(CNS): A young man may be spending Christmas behind bars after smashing a stolen black Porsche into a wall last night following a police chase. The 20-year-old suspected joy rider was arrested this morning and remains in police custody. The chase took place along Bodden Town Road at around 8.55pm Thursday, police revealed. Officers were travelling behind the stolen Porsche, which was travelling at high speed towards George Town. Police signalled the driver of the car to stop, using both blue lights and klaxons. The driver of the car did not comply with the police instructions, however, and a short time later the car collided with a wall in the Armstrong and Shamrock Road area.
The two male occupants of the Porsche bailed out of the vehicle and made off from police on foot. Neither of them appeared to be injured, police said. A search of the area was conducted and the vehicle was removed from the location to undergo forensic examination.
Following a police operation in the Bodden Town area this morning, a 20-year-old man was arrested in connection with the incident.
Bodden Town police are appealing for witnesses to the incident to come forward. Information can be passed to Bodden Town CID on 947-2220 or the confidential Crime Stoppers number 800-8477 (TIPS).

Klaxons are non-lethal guns that send out Barry Manilow tunes at 700 decibels. They can be directed with pinpoint accuracy by the pursuing police car, in this case, it was "At The Copa" that caused the bandits to lose control.
The lethal version uses Celine Dion. A short spurt of "My heart will go on" kills all non-protected listeners within 500 yards.

So funny someone had to look up the word Klaxon! Blue Lights and Sirens will suffice CNS or as some pronouce it sireeeeeeeeeeeeen
Put a low-life behind the wheel of a Porsche and see what happens. So relieved to learn that according to police "neither of them appeared to be injured." I mean, it would have been terrible if they’d have been hurt, as they tried to evade our police, my God, perish the thought. I’ll sleep a lot easier tonight.
