In a scene that sounds like something out of an action movie, a Houston Uber driver says he was waiting at a stop sign when cops jumped into his car and ordered him to “go go go!” As reported by Click 2 Houston, the incident took place on Aug. 7 on E. 7 1/2 Street and Oxford Street in The Heights neighborhood.
Driver Anthony Baines, an Army veteran and Uber driver for two years, says he was on his way to collect a passenger when a shirtless man sprinted past Baines’ car, closely pursued by the two female officers. Apparently out of breath, the cops effectively commandeered his car while he was still at the wheel.
