Late yesterday afternoon, UFC superstar Quentin "Rampage" Jackson was arrested for his part in a s suspected hit and run in Newport Beach, California. Details were scarce except for that kick ass picture above, but now TMZ has some details.
Rampage was on the 55 Freeway in the O.C., hit two cars and got off the freeway. The chase was on.
Rampage then began driving on the center divider. But it gets worse. According to the police report, Jackson then drove on the sidewalk, "causing pedestrians to flee for their lives." He started driving the wrong way on a crowded street, colliding with yet another car in an intersection. As he continued on, running several red lights, his tire disintegrated and he began driving on the rim.
Rampage eventually got to the exclusive Balboa Peninsula in Newport Beach, where he again drove on the sidewalk, "causing pedestrians to flee in terror."
Eventually, his car came to a stop and he was taken into custody at gunpoint. Cops took him to the Orange County Jail, but they determined he was "medically unfit" to be booked. Cops won't say if he was high.
It would be disappointing if Rampage did some weed and then went and drove his monster truck around, but in his defense, that shit sounds fun.
"causing pedestrians to flee in terror."
Yea, but how many of them did he hit? You don't get any points for just scaring 'em, man.
If that's a real picture, then we don't need no stickin' details.
The only way to make this any better would be to put the truck in reverse.
I will flee in terror any day, as long as a the dude making me flee calls himself Rampage.
people need to be scared from time to time otherwise they just keep thinking they're safe. THEY'RE NOT SAFE WHEN THE RAMPAGE IS RUNNING WILD!!!! NO ONE IS!!!!
ok i stayed up to watch the entire all star game last night and drank to much coffee but at least im not rich and obnoxiously running down people on the sidewalk with my oversized gay looking truck…and im not black
Rampage was just auditioning for the lead in the Death Race sequel…
"Medically unfit" = Overdosing on Antibotics and Shrooms
The article fails to note that the officers got his autograph and free passes to the next event. Then they let him go.
Rampage > JT Money
just how high do you have to be to be declared "medically unfit to be booked" in the O.C.? Mel "I'm not really a Nazi…wink, wink" Gibson was totally sloshed, Li-Ho was tripping the light fantastic as was Nic-hole Ritchie…Rampage must have exhaled a hemp rope or a Crown Royal cap or something…
A dude named Rampage went on a rampage. Shocking!
i notice the cop holding the gun is not black and Rampage is. This is targeted racism….an Jesse Jackson will not be impressed.
RipFuel+ Crystal Meth + Having A Monster Truck = A fun day with Rampage
Shocking news! A large black man with a large chain around his neck was driving recklessly whilst high .
Other breaking news and unexpected happenings! Amy whinehouse is believed to be using drugs and alcohol!
This poor bastard was waaay ouy of his neighborhood. If you're on the sidewalk on the Balboa Peninsula you're pretty much peoples' living rooms… and it dead ends in the sea. This reads like a suicide attempt.
Dollars to donuts someone's been playing a lot of GTA IV lately.
I know when I play and then go for a drive I drive like a total asshole. Which is appropriate because I'm a total asshole…
He probably got knocked stupid in that Forrest Griffin fight. I wonder if there's a temporary insanity plea in this man's future.
Please god let that pickup truck go up for auction cause my
sisterwife said I could bid on it! YEEE HAWWWD.W.B.= driving while Black
This so-called eye-witness testimony sounds pretty shoddy to me — I mean, c'mon, if these pedestrians were diving out of the way, how on earth could they give a proper identification of the suspect?
They should have went Rodney King on his ass!
