Suspect who was caught on video jumping out of his Tesla and striking a car with a pipe on the 2 Freeway has been arrested, CHP says.
A Tesla Model S caught fire after its battery cells overheated on a California highway, authorities said.Prosecutors expect to file additional charges against Radimak at his arraignment, said Tiffiny Blacknell, a spokesperson for the Los Angeles County district attorney’s office.
“We also plan to file a request with the court that he be denied bail and preventatively detained pending the outcome of these matters,” Blacknell said in a written statement. “We believe that Mr. Radimak is a flight risk and danger to the community. We base that opinion on his lengthy criminal history which spans nearly two decades and crosses multiple states and jurisdictions.”
Tips from the public led to Radimak’s arrest, and his black 2022 Tesla Model X was seized by police, according to the CHP. Though other drivers detailed similar incidents after video of the on the 2 Freeway was made public, CHP Officer Roberto Gomez said the arrest was related only to a single incident and would not comment on any other altercations Radimak may have been involved in.
