Police officers thought it was going to be a routine traffic stop after noticing suspicious license plates on a vehicle. But what they discovered left them stunned: the car was actually a stolen Dodge SRT Hellcat, one of the fastest and most sought-after muscle cars in America.
Bodycam footage shows officers approaching the car, questioning the driver, and then running the plates. Moments later, alarms went off in the system β confirming the vehicle had been reported stolen.
The driver appeared nervous as officers surrounded the car, ordering him out immediately. Witnesses nearby described the scene as tense, with police ready for the situation to escalate. Fortunately, the suspect was taken into custody without incident, and the Hellcat was safely recovered.
Social media exploded after clips of the arrest went viral:
- βStealing a Hellcat is crazy β that car is like a cop magnet.β
- βYou canβt drive something that loud and think you wonβt get caught.β
- βBro really thought he could outsmart the system with fake plates.β
Authorities say the suspect now faces multiple charges, including grand theft auto and possession of stolen property. Meanwhile, the car will be returned to its rightful owner β proving once again that flashy getaways donβt end well.
