Streamer Joshimuz was 98 minutes into a Grand Theft Auto: Vice City any% speedrun when a cop briefly turned into The Flash to arrest him. In response to what Joshimuz calls "an old speedrunning legend" known as an 'ultra-cop', former Rockstar developer Obbe Vermeij explained how the bug even happens in the first place.
In a clip of the bug on X, Joshimuz only has a one-star wanted level—which shouldn't even scare a normal GTA player—while making deliveries in a Cherry Pop Ice Cream truck. Just as he's turning into an alleyway, one cop zooms in from off screen straight to his car door like he was wearing roller skates. Joshimuz is stunned when it happens, turning to look at his chat as his character is arrested and respawns at a nearby police station. "I have no words, wow. I've never been ultra-copped that bad in Vice City before."
