This video represents a typical day for the auto theft investigators from IMPACT. In this video our investigators went to the City of Vancouver to target some known car thieves. Within a short period of time they spotted a stolen Jeep Cherokee that was being driven by the guy who stole it.
The Cherokee was watched by officers, and when the right moment came, the suspect was arrested without a dangerous pursuit. You will notice that the officers are pointing their guns at the car thief during the arrest. This is because many car thieves are armed and dangerous. It is not uncommon for our investigators to arrest car thieves who are armed with loaded handguns and wearing bullet proof vests because they are on their way to commit a home invasion, grow rip or armed robbery.
