Driver jumps into car mid-repossession, tries and fails to get away

PEMBROKE PINES, Fla. – A tow truck driver ran into some trouble while trying to repossess a vehicle in Pembroke Pines.

Police said a Mercedes Benz was already hooked up to the tow truck when someone jumped in the driver’s seat of the pricy SUV.

That person hit the gas until the Mercedes was released from the hitch.

That’s when the driver struck property on the lot while trying to get away, eventually backing up into the tow truck, police said.

The car then became disabled and eventually was towed from the scene.
