An RV with its expandable sides fully extended was the subject of a pursuit in California between Riverside and San Diego counties Wednesday.
This story originally appeared on NBC 7 News.
The brand-new, full-sized motorhome was stolen from Richardson’s RV Centers in Menifee, according to California Highway Patrol.
Employees there say they were installing a new floor when the suspect jumped in and drove away.
Officers say the driver traveled from Interstate 215 near Menifee at 1 p.m. into San Diego County via southbound Interstate 15.
When the driver reached Gopher Canyon, he exited the interstate but drove back on heading south.
CHP Officer Mary Bailey said speeds in the pursuit ranged from 25 to 60 mph.
The RV eventually stopped at Auto Parkway where the driver was taken into custody.
A witness who was on her way to get her nails done told NBC 7 she was overwhelmed by the swarm of police.
The RV was driven back up to Menifee following the incident. No injuries were reported.
