Two armed suspects went on a rolling crime spree that saw them steal multiple vehicles. That included two pickup trucks and a tanker semi truck, while leading police across counties in a pursuit that looked more like a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.carscoops.com\/tag\/gta\/\">GTA<\/a> game than reality.<\/p>\n<div class=\"ad-placement\">\n<div id=\"82503191-e1d1-435a-874f-9c78a2a54a2f\" class=\"_ap_apex_ad\"><\/div>\n<div id=\"0f7e3106-c4d6-4db4-8135-c508879a76f8\" class=\"_ap_apex_ad\"><\/div>\n<p>\t\t\t\tvar adpushup = window.adpushup  = window.adpushup || {que:[]};<br \/>\n\t\t\t\tadpushup.que.push(function() {<br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\tif (adpushup.config.platform !== &#8220;DESKTOP&#8221;){<br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\tadpushup.triggerAd(&#8220;0f7e3106-c4d6-4db4-8135-c508879a76f8&#8221;);<br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t} else {<br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\tadpushup.triggerAd(&#8220;82503191-e1d1-435a-874f-9c78a2a54a2f&#8221;);<br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t}<br \/>\n\t\t\t\t});<\/p><\/div>\n<p><strong>Read:&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.carscoops.com\/2023\/05\/man-goes-on-a-gta-like-carjacking-and-ramming-spree-unleashing-chaos-in-canada\/\">Man Goes On GTA-Like Carjacking And Ramming Spree Unleashing Chaos In Canada<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Authorities say that the chase began around 11 p.m. in Lancaster, about 60 miles north of downtown LA, when the duo carjacked a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.carscoops.com\/tag\/ford\/\">Ford<\/a> F-150 at gunpoint. The original victim allegedly gave chase in a different vehicle, prompting one suspect to fire at them.

There, they ultimately abandoned it for a far larger prize, a tanker truck that they ran into the front of. The original driver of the semi hopped out, again, at gunpoint, and the suspects drove away, says <a href=\"https:\/\/abc7.com\/post\/suspects-leads-chp-chase-los-angeles-area-tanker-truck-carjacking-driver\/17498201\/\">ABC 7<\/a>.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Eventually, they ditched the semi near downtown and carjacked a different pickup truck. That vehicle took them to Lincoln Heights, where the chaos continued. Incredibly, the suspects managed to slip away after carjacking a black sedan. Authorities say they vanished before officers could close in.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<\/div>\n<\/figure>\n<p><strong>Manhunt underway<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>As of this writing, both suspects are still at large, and officers haven&rsquo;t made any arrests. Police are now combing through surveillance footage and witness statements in hopes of tracking the pair down.
