"Transformers Bumblebee Crashes Into Police S.U.V. While Filming"



"A police S.U.V. was speeding to a crime scene in Washington on Monday when it was hit by a bright yellow Chevrolet Camaro. The crunch was captured by several video cameras, like the one that shot the footage above.

"The collision was also captured, no doubt, by several movie cameras because the Camaro, one of the main movie cars in the 'Transformers 3' movie, was filming a scene.

"Yes, Bumblebee, the name of the Camaro’s character in the movie, crashed into a real (albeit wayward) police vehicle, en route to investigate a suspicious package, reported The Washington Post."

Poor Bumblebee! They covered him up right away to avoid traumatizing fans.

It didn't look like Bubblebee hit the cop that hard but it sure tore the hell out of the front end of it.

That's what I thought - a lot of plastic. Bumblebee isn't too sturdy.
