Ryan Sheckler’s truck (but maybe not Ryan) was involved in an “intense midnight” shootout on Friday night, according to TMZ.
According to Orange County Sheriff’s Department, deputies responded to a call about a traffic collision late Friday night involving a possible drunk driver — but when they showed up, we’re told, the driver motored it away from the scene. . . Law enforcement sources tell us … officers chased the driver down and cornered him on a dead end street — the driver panicked, pulled a U-turn, and gunned it in the cops’ direction … at which point, we’re told, sheriff’s deputies drew their weapons and shot at the truck. . . We’re told the driver — who turned out to be an unidentified minor — wasn’t hit … and gave up immediately after the deputies shot their weapons.
TMZ says the truck was later reported stolen by Sheckler. Hmm. . .
At appoximately 1:30PM (November 1, 2010) the following tweet was sent out on Ryan Sheckler’s official Twitter.
“Wanted to let everyone know Ryan is safe. His vehicle was stolen from his house, located in a secured gated community Friday night. Ryan is no way involved in this incident nor has any connection to the suspect. Ryan thanks his friends and fans for the concern.”- Representative of Ryan Sheckler at Wasserman Media Group
That makes a us feel much better.
