I can't wait to get a pic and a name on this loser....


MOUNTLAKE TERRACE, Wash. – A 19-month-old child was recovered safely after being caught in the middle of a high speed police chase with her father Saturday afternoon.

That chase reached speeds of 100 miles per hour down I-5 south of Mountlake Terrace. Police said the baby's father held the child on his lap the whole way.

He was arrested Saturday afternoon and is likely to be charged with eluding police and endangering a child.

Police say the incident started in a Mountlake Terrace Park, where they were called to help a baby having seizures.

"The individual refused to comply with officer's commands to hand over the child and surrender himself," said Sgt. Craig McCaul, of Mountlake Terrace Police.

Police say the man, who had outstanding warrants, got into his car with child on lap and raced down I-5, weaving through traffic

Somebody needs to teach this man the proper use of a seatbelt, at least for himself. Might I suggest the technique in which it is wrapped tightly around the idiot's neck three or four times, and jerked sharply? That would at least provide more protection for the child in this case. :D

What did you expect? He couldn't afford an air bag. Have to protect yourself somehow in a high-speed chase, and a nice squishy child is a good choice.
