It's hard to imagine many GOOD excuses for getting into a super high speed police chase . . . but this is an especially BAD one.
The police in Elkhart County, Indiana tried to pull over a 25-year-old guy named Musab Alshussein from Minneapolis on Wednesday night . . . when they spotted him in his red Ford Mustang doing 120 miles-an-hour in a 70 mile-an-hour zone
But Musab just kept going, and he got into a 25-mile chase with the cops
When he finally stopped, his excuse was . . . he thought the cops wanted to DRAG RACE.
He was arrested on several charges, including reckless driving and resisting arrest.
