More than a dozen vehicles are bumped, shoved or sideswiped

The driver of a disabled car stole the tow truck sent to help him Friday, and led police on a long and winding rush-hour chase through suburban Maryland, crashing into many other vehicles along the way.

It seemed to be a sort of unending and unsanctioned low- or medium-speed tour over an erratic route through parts of eastern Montgomery County and northwestern Prince George’s. It banged into cars and delayed and impeded traffic in other ways as it followed a zig-zagging, direction-reversing course. But at key moments in the pursuit, just as it appeared all over for the driver, he used what was presumably the tow truck’s greater weight to push, shove and sideswipe other vehicles out of his way.
