What do you do when a 15 year old car thief steals a BMW and decides to threaten the public by driving at 150 mph like he is playing Grand Theft Auto? You chase him in a police Camaro with a 350 horsepower engine. The teen drives like he is playing a videogame. But this terrifying reality -- with the lives of dozens of motorists at stake. In their efforts to protect the lives of others, two officers almost lose own their lives. Another example of the extraordinary heroism of the ordinary men and women in uniform who Great Americans was created to honor. http://www.greatamericans.com/video/BMW-M3-getaway-vs-Police
