SUV stolen in Mira Mesa (northern burb of San Diego) by 4 women. That's not the unusual part... the cops stopped it with a spike strip after 40 minutes of chase... still not unheard of. The cops forgot to retrieve the strip, and 6 innocent vehicles were effed up. Stupid cops

The chase ended in on southbound Interstate 15 in the Deer Springs area after the California Highway Patrol deployed the spike strip to stop a stolen Toyota Highlander.

The pursuit began on northbound Interstate 15 at Carroll Canyon Road about 11:45 p.m. Sunday, from the Mira Mesa area to Rainbow, where the pursuit turned southbound on I-15, according to the California Highway Patrol, that’s when the CHP deployed the spike strip.

 After the SUV came to a stop, the four women inside refused orders to get out, so officers shot out the rear window with a bean-bag shotgun, the CHP said.

 Witnesses said that at least six cars suffered tire damage driving over the spike strip before officers removed it from the roadway.
