Wild video exhibits a automotive violently zigzagging uncontrolled whereas being towed backwards down a busy Texas freeway — with a terrified-looking driver inside.
Dontae Brown, 32, may very well be seen panicking in his blue sedan because it whips round by way of visitors on Houston’s North Loop whereas being pulled by a white SUV pushed by his laughing girlfriend.
“What are you doing, stupid?” gasped David Chairez, who filmed the now-viral video footage of the loopy scene because the sedan swung wildly between lanes — and practically smashed right into a barrier.
“It looked like a scene from ‘Fast & Furious,’” Chairez mentioned. “That was very reckless, and that was very dangerous.”
Police later mentioned Brown and his girlfriend got here up with the damaging, madcap plan as a result of they might not afford a tow truck — with the chain they used to drag it then snapping off the automotive’s axle, leaving it swinging round, ABC 13 reported.
Brown appeared upset when he lastly got here to a cease, witness Ken Collins mentioned.
“It was crazy, I thought they was [about to] fight, I thought he was going to jump on the driver. He was yelling at the lady, he hit his hood,” Collins informed KHOU.
“She was trying to talk to him, but he didn’t want to hear nothing of it. He was like, ‘you messed up my car, you [messed] up my car,’” he mentioned.
Brown was arrested for an energetic warrant he had out of Georgia, however no citations got on this case, in keeping with police.
