The trouble began when police said the pair ran a red light in their SUV and T-boned another vehicle. They fled the scene, ran into a nearby restaurant and ordered tacos, KSAT reported. As they waited for their food, the police called the restaurant and described them. Employees told authorities that the couple was in the restaurant, and as police walked toward the restaurant, the man and woman ran and tried to hide.

The man ran into a closet and found a way to scramble up into the attic. He was crawling along when the ceiling caved in and he landed in the men’s room. Police said he was unsuccessfully trying to climb back into the attic when they apprehended him, KSAT said.

The suspects have not been identified. The investigation is ongoing. No injuries were reported as a result of the crash, police said.
