Stupid crime of the week

Two men try to carjack an unmarked police car

SANTA ANA, Calif. (AP) Two men tried to carjack an unmarked police car without realizing that two uniformed officers were inside, police said Friday.

The officers were investigating reports of illegal fireworks when a sports utility vehicle pulled in front of their sedan and two men got out, Police Cmdr. Steve Colon said.

The two men took ''an aggressive approach toward the officers,'' prompting the officers to get out of their car, Colon said. The suspects ran back to their SUV and sped off. A short chase ensued, then the suspects jumped out of their vehicle and ran.

The officers were able to arrest Eleazar Lopez, 22, on suspicion of assault with a deadly weapon and conspiracy, Colon said.

The unidentified driver managed to get away.

I've noticed a lot of undercover cars don't have that anymore, however they still have the small Police Interceptor badge on the back.

No, it was probably a year or two old full white car, not a crown vic.

Then again, I have seen a taxi Crown Vic with a police interceptor badge on it as well.

I still wouldn't take any chances on any car that has any police badging, lights, CA Except plate, or anything else that might make it a police car.
