Failed getaway at Port A ferry landing
05-02-2019, 08:52 AM
Some crazy 64 year old made a bad decision.
BREAKING: Police have identified a body inside the truck that plunged into ship channel
https://kristv.com/news/2019/05/01/police-found-body-chase-ending-truck-plunging-ship-channel/
A man driving a truck led Port Aransas Police on a chase last night that ended with the truck plunging into the ship channel.

I wouldn't call it a failed getaway, he didn't go to jail.

The guy drowned. That's the literal definition of a failed getaway.

Nope... Sounds exactly like Mark Wahlberg's escape in Shooter. Suspect is half way to Mexico by now.

sure looks like he wanted to end it that way. Looks more like suicide than a getaway attempt.
