TORONTO – If you’re driving down a road dragging a stolen safe behind your car, it’s probably not a good idea to pass a police officer along the way.
That’s exactly what one North Carolina man did.
Ryan Mullins, 22, is accused of breaking into a Swansboro pharmacy Tuesday and tying a rope to a 100lb safe, attaching it to the rear bumper of his car and dragging it down a street.
During his getaway, an officer spotted Mullins’ car, with safe in tow, and began to follow him.
Dashcam footage shows the safe swaying side-to-side as the car speeds down a side road.
“When I pulled up on the scene, I was like ‘you have got to be kidding me!,'” officer Dwayne Taylor told NBC News.
Mullins faces charges of safecracking, breaking and entering, larceny after breaking and entering, possession of stolen goods, trafficking of opium or heroin and DWI.
