Dump Truck Chase

Police in Syracuse, New York, said a 37-year-old man driving a dump truck led them on an hour-long chase over roads, rails and yards that ended with the suspect being shot. Officials said Lostumbo jumped into a dump truck Tuesday night after being accused of stealing from vending machines at a mall. Police pursued the truck on a highway, through backyards and school grounds and down railroad tracks at speeds up to 65 mph before stopping it at a barricade. Lostumbo reversed the truck and hit a sheriff’s vehicle and officers fired, apparently striking Lostumbo in the shoulder. He was briefly hospitalized for minor injuries.
