Watch Toddler Walk After Being Thrown From Car During High-Speed Chase
A newly released video from a police dashcam shows an 18-month-old girl being thrown from an SUV as it flips over during a police chase.
The toddler miraculously survived. Immediately after being ejected, she is seen standing up, trying to reach the car as it slowly drives, and then stumbling to the ground. She was treated for minor injuries and is currently staying with relatives, according to the Today show.
The high-speed chase took place in Lubbock, Texas, Saturday night. Police were called after Kenny Jimenez, 17, along with three other teenagers stole a young woman's purse at a parking lot.
During the chase, the SUV began to swerve then flipped over. That's when the toddler fell out. A teenage woman, believed to be her mother, came out of the car to pick her up. Jimenez is reportedly the father of the toddler.
The four teens are being charged with aggravated robbery, injury to a child, unauthorized use of a vehicle, evading arrest and organized crime.
