You couldn't script that.

I actually thought it was going to be one of those Darwin Award things, where the perps sit there and wait for the cops to come back out.

I guess that is a fine example of tunnel vision

Yeah. But it would've been nice if one of those good citizens standing around pointed and said "They went thataway!"

They were too busy taping it.

I had a bank branch manager tell me a story that makes those guys look like the untouchables. That said, I wonder about the video. Did the camera person note the suspicious folks and fire up the camcorder? I think an enterprising ADA could cook up an accessory charge without much effort. The concept being to discourage non-involvement. On the other hand, being Detroit, why bother.

Several years ago there was a video of a pool hall gunfight/shooting that was absolutely hysterical. Many, many rounds fired, no one hurt.

I also think the video would make an outstanding training item. Why in the world didn't at least one of the responders hold the car as possible witnesses?
