I was behind them. They first hit in Kanawha City after one guy got out and started cussing the other. They then ran a redlight to turn left onto 119 towards southridge. After that, I lost them for a while until I saw them flying out in the middle of traffic nearly hitting other cars and driving off real fast. The 911 operator got a call that they were on oakwood road just before I got off the phone with him. Then they apparently didn't make it there in time but caught them at Cantley Drive? I saw some police officers heading down towards Davis Creek, but I am not sure where they ended up because I just went to KFC and said thank God I made it this far without getting killed. That was the 2nd crazy thing I saw that day. The first was the police trying to get to the dummy that jumped in the Kanawha River after he robbed that place. Ahhh. Then of all things I lost my wallet at Foodland, but thankfully some nice person handed it in to the manager. Shew!
