In all the years Inside Edition has been on the air,
I don't think we've ever had a story like this.
A man's truck was stolen and he chased it down,
using his family's helicopter.
(helicopter blades whirring)
It's a stolen truck chase
unlike any you've ever seen.
Who's giving chase in the chopper?
It's the owner of the truck.
Emmanuel Toner's truck was stolen while he was getting gas.
I left my truck just outside the building
and within 30 seconds,
somebody jumped in my truck and took off.
Luckily, Emmanuel's father owns a helicopter.
My dad called me and he says,
"Let's go for a ride in the helicopter."
Moments later, they were in pursuit
over the skies of New Brunswick, Canada.
We flew over them for a good 40 minutes
and we let him know, "Hey, you run but you can't hide."
They called cops and directed them to the suspect.
What do you want to say
to anyone who's looking to take your truck again.
(laughs) You don't steal a truck
from someone that owns a helicopter.
(helicopter blades whirring)
That story's a good reminder to turn off your vehicle
and take your keys if you ever step away from it.
(upbeat music)
