Default you have to chuckle at this

KSDK-- The outcome may leave you asking, "What are the chances?" Two men trying to escape from police drive the wrong way on Interstate 70 and collide head-on with another car. It turns-out both vehicles were stolen.

Police say the men that led them on the chase are brothers, Anthony, 23, and Darrell, 22, Thomas, of Hazelwood. Investigators say a St. Charles County Sheriff Deputy was on his way to the St. Louis Jail Saturday night when he spotted a stolen vehicle on West Florissant Avenue. When he tried to pull it over, police say the suspects rammed the patrol car and fired several shots. The deputy was not hit and has minor injuries from the incident.

Trying to flee police, the men started driving the wrong-way on I-70 between Union and Riverview. The stolen car they hit head-on had four passengers between the ages of 15 and 18. The four are at a local hospital in various conditions from serious to critical. Police are not releasing their names. The Thomas brothers died at the scene.

Two stolen vehicles, one crash, two dead, five injured.

Police say they found the gun that was used to shoot at the deputy.

Un-fricking-believable!!!! It makes you think though, the two brothers were obviously either hardened criminals or headed that way and the teenagers were more than likely just joyriders.

hard to believe this type of thing would happen in St. Louis with guys named "Darrell" and "Anthony."
