Similar tale from the UK. The A1 just North of Newcastle, crew responding to reports of a stolen Land Rover Defender heading South. Unfortunately for the crims, nearby were 5 Armed response vehicles on their way back to HQ from a training exercise. Crew spot the vehicle and talk the ARVs onto it. The ARV crews put their recently practiced skills to good use and pulled off a text book stop. En-route back to base, we hear over the radio - "Can we have a van for one of the suspects please?" "Why can't you transport him in one of the cars?" says the Inspector in the control room - "he's had a bowel movement!" came the reply.
