Another police chase after bootleggers

Only this one is a "long-distance boat chase" (25-miles) with the two drivers switching drivers when one of them "either passed out or slumped out from behind the wheel."

Reportedly, the two guys being chased repeatedly tried to ram the troopers' boat.

They were charged with driving under the influence, eluding, third-degree assault, importing alcohol (because they had five bottles of vodka in their possession, which is illegal in the area of Alaska they were in) and reckless operation of watercraft. Plus, one of them was charged with harassment and disorderly conduct for spitting at the trooper and taunting him.

Read the story.

How comforting to know that the Grand Theft Auto video game is popular up there too.
