Police realized the woman was driving a vehicle that had also been stolen in a separate, unrelated crime three weeks prior, the outlet reported. Kristin Nicole Begue was also found to be under the influence while driving her stolen car. (RELATED: Man Goes On Bizarre Rant After A Car Crash In Wild Videos)
What are the odds that two people driving stolen cars would crash into each other? Begue might have even gotten away with it considering she was driving a vehicle stolen weeks ago. What terrible luck for them both. (RELATED: Wild Video Shows Looters And Rioters Stealing 50+ Cars From California Dealership)
The police really got lucky that day catching two dumb criminals that had equally dumb luck.
Cooper was charged with unauthorized use of a motor vehicle, attempting to elude police, assault and reckless driving. Begue was also charged with driving under the influence and unauthorized use of a motor vehicle, according to Fox News.
