6:32 pm
the valet has a very tight spot to pull it into. nice job mr. valet. backs that thing in perfectly. >> lot of people see these cars and get video of the car. the valet decides, i'll give this guy a little show and as he goes to hit the throttle. >> no! no, no, no! >> that's all it took he thought he was in neutral, the car was not, in first gear, tried to flip the throttle, lurches forward. >> you think it's minor. >> not to that car. >> oh. >> like an egg shell. that nice beautifully crafted front end, all crunched like an egg shell. >> how do you tell the owner? >> that's the thing. you make the valet say, sir, you're the one. >> yeah. >> if you search for dash cam police chases on-line you will come up with a long list of
6:33 pm
videos. how about a dash cam police chase russian style. this guy is riding through what looks like people's yards. driven by 44-year-old man who police say was intoxicated. the bizarre thing, the pedestrians don't seem alarmed. >> no. >> the chase continues. and gets dangerous like if this moment where the guy in the silver car pulls over into oncoming traffic. the officer follows. we head into the round about. that yellow car pulls in between. the guy being chased but the chase does continue. this guy almost running into pedestrians. now on a narrow road, dangerously swerve pg in and out of traffic. almost having head-on collisions with other cars. >> how would you think a russian chase would end?
6:34 pm
>> grandma steps on to the street and says stop and he listens. >> that would be good but no. ditches his car. other officers show up and suddenly you have police cars and officers on foot chasing the dude down. there's the fella. the officers on foot got him. an anti-climatic end to what was a strange russian cop chase. >> nobody was injured it looks like. that's good. >> nobody was injured. they did take this guy into custody. >> two very different scenarios in the next two videos but both incredibly close calls. watch this first one from a shopping center in the uk. you see this woman here walking in pushing the stroller. she has her 22-month-old son with her. cute guy. watch this. the reason that the police put this video out there.

they're looking for somebody. the person they're looking for, this guy here described as a white man in his 60s. watch this. as the woman enters the store he grabs the little boy's hand and begins leading the little away from his mother. now his mom snaps her head around and realizes what's going on. mom goes back and says what the heck is going on here. eventually takes the boy back. man walks away. police say he left the shopping center. after this encounter police say they don't know the intentions of this man, but they are looking into this because this is definitely suspicious. >> makes your skin crawl. who is this guy, what's he up to? has he done this before? from there we head to massachusetts the subway line here, notice this guy here and what looks like a patriot's jersey. gets close to the yellow caution area of the subway platform. like he has a couple bags. police say the guy did have a bottle of alcohol with him. and watch this. apparently he was sipping from the alcohol. out of nowhere comes the
6:36 pm
massachusetts transit police detective shawn conway. watch shawn spring into action literally at the last second. >> wow. >> watch that. >> oh, wow. he caught him almost midair. >> the "boston globe" says the next train wasn't scheduled to arrive another four minutes. that's not the issue. the electrified third rail down there, 600 volts, instant death. everyone saying this guy is a hero, shawn saved this guy's life. he said he doesn't like the attention this video is getting. he was glad he could help. >> hey, everybody. we're ending the week with another ipad mini giveaway. >> you need the buzzword and a twitter account. if you don't have a twitter account don't worry, it's easy to create one. >> the buzzword is coming up in a little bit. you have to be at least 18 years old and a u.s. resident to enter. >> the "rtm" ipad mini giveaway is coming up in a little bit. >> this story should make you feel good about humanity. this is on a beach in vietnam at

6:38 pm
then be so close to all these people who are yelling commands and talking to each other and it's stressful. >> yeah. does look like the dolphin is not freaking out. kind of calm for the situation which is a good thing. >> dolphins are smart. i think this dolphin understood what the humans are trying to do. >> it's a police dash cam video that's stirring up controversy. >> an officer thought he was suspicious and stops him. he doesn't have i.d. and then things escalate from there. >> pat you down for weapons. >> relax. >> what the cop didn't know that has people seeing both sides of the scene. and see how a bike ride goes sideways. >> watch what happens. >> what?
