Cop rides on the hood of Good Samaritan’s car as he pursues minibike riders in Oklahoma

Bodycam footage shows a cop riding on the hood of a Good Samaritan’s car as he pursued a teenage minibike rider.

An Oklahoma City cop began chasing the individual after they failed to use headlights and did not stop at a stop sign on 6 March.

Following a chase which saw the officer leave his vehicle and pursue them on foot through a residential area, he jumped onto a passerby’s vehicle and commanded them to “drive, drive, drive”.

The officer instructed the driver where to go whilst clinging to the hood, and after two minutes was able to catch up to the suspect, who he tackled to the ground.

The 17-year-old minibike rider faces multiple charges.
