xB Thief...




Miles Jerome Santiago-Serrano


The chase started here in front of Cost Plus just north of the Tacoma Mall





It ended here with the stolen Scion xB being hit and totaled by

a police patrol car after being shot at, chased, sideswiped and

driven into the ground...





















Here's Miles Jerome Santiago-Serrano handcuffed to a stretcher,

on the way to a hospital for his bullet wound and dog bites, and

then to jail...

(This is from the burglary/car theft/assault/etc. from a week earlier than stealing the xB.)




To see the actually court documents on-line (via LINX) requires a $25 set-up fee, plus $25 for each case, so it would cost $75 to see copies of the actual charges, etc. since you are not a lawyer of part of the case.

If you really want to see how the local Scion community felt about this as it was happening, here's a link to one of the sites I help run:

Most of that same information is available in that discussion on ScionLife above.
