Default C5 Owner chases down armed cop shooter

This is an amazing example of risking your own life to bring someone to justice. He could've sat by, but he did something and made sure that the suspect will see a just punishment... Read about it here: https://www.corvetteforum.com/articl...tte-ownerhero/

Positive news reports involving the Corvette and their owners is always a good thing.

It's not being a vigilante to bring someone to justice as long as you don't administer the justice yourself. I chased down a drunk driver and performed a citizens arrest one time, and broke a few traffic laws doing it. I always figured I probably saved his life and probably someone else's, considering how drunk he was and how far he was planning to go.
