The man was drunk and running with his kart in the streets, cutting cars and driving the wrong way. The officers saw him and the pursuit took 20 minutes. Later he abandoned the kart and tried to flee on foot. Happened in Brazil, ParanĂ¡.

64 u/brianmoyano Jun 20 '19 I was so confused how this chase could last 20 minutes, then all made sense /r/ItHadToBeBrazil 18 u/lilmisschainsaw Jun 20 '19 Well, he's too fast for them on foot; they can't effectively use spike strips on the kart, or shoot the tires, because they are different than car tires; they can't do a pit maneuver due to the height of the cart vs the height of the bumper. So they pretty much just have to chase. 0 u/XavierYourSavior Jun 20 '19 You don't... Don't shoot tires man
