West Australian Man Fails Miserably By Driving Into The Ocean To Try And Outrun Police
An audacious West Australian man attempted to drive a stolen 4WD through the ocean during a police pursuit and failed miserably.
The chase began north of Perth, yesterday at around 10.20am. After about two hours of swerving through busy traffic, the man bursted onto Yanchep beach and powered towards the shoreline.
Once he became cornered on the beach, he decided his best hope to escape was to drive directly into the surf.

Quickly realising his vehicle was in-fact not ‘Chitty Chitty Bang Bang’ and that he was totally fucked, he tried to climb onto his roof, only to be hit by the big swell.
Police swiftly swam out to him and made an arrest. Full marks for ambition though.
