Police are seeking the public's help to identify suspects they say have been ramming stolen vehicles into law enforcement vehicles and fleeing the scene.
Investigators believe at least three people are involved in the scheme to crash into law enforcement vehicles around the valley, Metro Police said on Twitter.
The incidents began April 29 in Henderson and have also occurred in Las Vegas and Boulder City, police said.
The suspects typically steal a truck then rig the gas pedal to crash into unoccupied law enforcement vehicles, police said. The damaged vehicles have included Metro Police K-9 vehicles, an unmarked car and a U.S. Bureau of Reclamation K-9 vehicle, Officer Larry Hadfield said.
Surveillance video from one of the incidents shows a truck and sedan believed to be involved in the crimes, police said. http://lasvegassun.com/news/2015/jul/27/suspects-wanted-ramming-law-enforcement-vehicles/
Kind of strange... Stealing cars just to run into unoccupied police cars.
Must be the new hobby by the bored kids in Vegas and vicinity.
