Troopers Shoot Gas Tanker's Tires Near Mayfest

[patric]

kotv:The chase went down U.S. Highway 169 and then onto the Broken Arrow Expressway westbound. Police say Nail made it all the way to downtown Tulsa where troopers managed to shoot out the tires, slowing the tanker.
The truck sideswiped several cars before coming to a rest near Mayfest and the Blue Dome Art festival in Tulsa.

Really wild! Very fortunate we did not have a major incident.

The guy must have gone nutty on drugs. 

I'll guess alcohol, but some designer drug seems more likely.

There might be more to it.  The company phone number listed on the side of the truck is a wrong number.  I'll be curious to see what the reason for him running turns out to be.
