Cop chasing suspect gets a ride with Lyft driver, as Mario Kart plays in the back

This is the moment a police officer takes a ride from a passer-by to help chase a fleeing suspect, all while Mario Kart is playing in the back of the van. Bodycam footage shared by Pinellas County Sheriff's Office on Friday (22 August) shows officers speaking to a passenger after they pulled their vehicle over for inspection when they noticed the smell of marijuana. As one individual was being searched outside their car, they tossed a backpack to another man, who proceeded to run down the road with an officer quickly chasing after him. A passing driver then opened his side door and told the officer to get inside. Sat in the backseat, a game of Mario Kart can be seen on a screen. Thanks to the help of the passer-by, the officer was able to over-take the suspect, where he was subdued with a taser and arrested.
