Hopefully some images of the scene will surface later?

In a pursuit that raised many more questions than the public will ever have answers to, on the night of March 30 - 31, 2016 an unauthorized vehicle being pursued by California Highway Patrol was able to enter the secure jet operations area at Naval Air Station Lemoore, sending officers on a wild chase as an F-18 was flying overhead (visible on FLIR at 5:52).

Real World Police has obtained exclusive FLIR footage showing the chase and ultimate capture of the offender after the CHP helicopter landed to take the driver into custody. What those officers found, though, was a shocking surprise.

This is the kind of footage you have to see to believe. GTA in real life.

Some particularly noteworthy scenes:

5:52 - 6:10
8:04 - 8:28
10:00 - 10:10
20:43 - end

Nice, drunken Sailors on a death joyride

Otherwise how else would they get on base, on the airfield, near the aircraft.. Unless they are active duty dependents.. I mean, you can't just drive on base.. There are force protection measures in place to prevent people from randomly entering the gate, especially a main gate. Otherwise, the Haji's would be fucking with us already

I thought the navy was mothballing these

Thats a huge issue about this instance, base security dropped the ball and these 2 drove right on unchallenged!

Thanks, I forgot to add the YouTube video message portion. I edited the original post.

apparently all branches of the US military have now become a huge joke....this would never happen in any other first world country.

i guess it must've been "Burlesque night" for all the tranny/chick MPs at base security HQ

in other news...the night vision quality is stunning

Planes had to protect themselves it seems. The commander of this base needs to be relieved of duty, never should have gotten this far.

Security protocols and procedures were updated after the review that followed the accident.



According to the report issued after the accident, hydraulic concrete barriers that raise up from the ground to stop such incursions were deployed only after the Jeep had already passed through. Moreover, the investigation highlighted that CHP officials were unable to notify NAS Lemoore personnel about the pursuit because they were calling an active number that had been provided to them for the base but it “was associated with an NASL building that had been demolished approximately 10 years prior.” Attempts to call on a back up number failed as well. The most concerning part of the report is that sailors at the “checkpoint didn’t know about the SUV until a CHP officer tracking the SUV drove up to the checkpoint booth and informed them.”

Contact between the NASL Regional Dispatch Center and CHP dispatchers was established only “six minutes after the Jeep Grand Cherokee hit the F-18 Hornet.” Furthermore, the report highlighted that the internal mobile radio system used by personnel at NAS Lemoore was not compatible with the equipment in use with the local law enforcement.

The conclusion of the U.S. Navy report recommended that NASL should maintain an updated phone contact list with “all federal, state and local law enforcement entities” and periodically test for two-way communications to verify accuracy, The Hanford Sentinel reported.

There might have been further security changes following the accident, but these have not been made public
