The video was initially uploaded to Reddit, where it went viral, the New York Post reported.
“It looked like a movie, like a scene from a movie,” Sean Irizarry, a resident of the neighborhood, told local news outlet Rochester First.
“I heard some screeching, so I could hear the car accident, and I ran to the front of the driveway, and that’s when I (saw) the car flip over right in front of the driveway,” the resident added, per the report. “The police officers pulled up and they came out with their weapons drawn and so that made me want to — well, I just ran away.”
A Twitter user commented: “This scene would have taken a Hollywood director 3 days and $5 million to get right.”
The suspects were treated for minor injuries and were later transported to the Monroe County Jail, officials said.
