Disgraced Vlog Squad member Durte Dom wanted by police after Tesla crash

Former Vlog Squad member Durte Dom claims he is the driver of the Tesla and that he was under the influence of a controlled substance when the $150,000 stunt went viral. Now, the Los Angeles Police Department is looking for him. 

On March 20, Dexerto reported that YouTuber Alex Choi filmed a driver launching an alleged $150,000 Tesla into the air on a public street just seconds before crashing the car into a trash can and a parked car.

Luckily the driver and his cat were found to be okay after the wreck, but the LAPD is offering a $1,000 reward for information leading to the arrest of the driver as they committed a misdemeanor hit-and-run.

Former Vlog Squad member Durte Dom uploaded videos onto his TikTok account stating that he was behind the viral stunt. However, Alex Choi revealed on his Instagram Story that Dom wasn’t even there.
