Burglars in high-speed chase stop to snap selfies before cops cuff them
How ridiculous has the selfie craze become? What happened in L.A. this afternoon says it all. A navy blue Ford Mustang, containing two burglary suspects, drove erratically on the streets and highways of L.A., nearly smashing into a TMZ bus in the process. While this was going on, news helicopters provided live coverage of what has become almost a daily event in L.A.
Even more amazing, the suspects started taking their own selfies as they awaited the arrival of the cops. The whole thing took on the feel of a block party with the criminals high-fiving and glad-handing the bystanders who had accumulated on the sidewalk.
Our instant thought. Will the cops need to break into the burglars' phones to grab a copy of those selfies?
