PHOTO: Someone Has Located The Infamous White Ford Bronco That OJ Simpson Drove While Leading The LAPD On A Wild Chase In 1994

OJ Simpson’s White Ford Bronco.

The white Ford Bronco OJ Simpson used to lead police on a low-speed chase through Los Angeles in 1994 is still around.

The vehicle was involved in one of the most shocking moments in American television history that even interrupted an NBA Finals game on NBC, with cameras showing OJ and his friend Al Cowlings being followed by multiple police cars after the murder of the OJ’s ex-wife.

The former NFL star passed away this Wednesday at the age of 76 following a battle with prostate cancer, with his family taking to social media to reveal as much.

As it turns out, the Bronco is still very much here and looks to be in pristine condition while on display at the Alcatraz East Crime Museum in Pigeon Forge, Tennessee. Its journey from that chase on the 405 freeway in L.A. to said museum was discussed in an episode of ‘Pawn Stars’ in 2017.

Cowlings, the vehicle’s former owner, sold it to Simpson’s former agent after the chase, and it ended up at Alcatraz East in 2016 on the back of lengthy negotiations and much deliberation.

According to TMZ, a museum spokesperson explained that they wanted to acquire it to make sure it wouldn’t be used to glorify the crime it’s been associated with.

It’s now among some other infamous getaway cars, including John Dillinger’s 1933 Essex Terraplane, Bonnie and Clyde’s “death car” from the 1967 movie, and serial killer Ted Bundy’s Volkswagen Beetle.

The spokesperson told the publication that Simpson’s death has not prompted any changes to the exhibit, though it’s too early to tell whether his passing will see an increase in visitors.

OJ Simpson Threatened To Kill Himself During The Chase

OJ Simpson became the LAPD’s Prime suspect after his ex-wife, Nicole Brown, and her friend, Ron Goldman, were stabbed to death in 1994.

Police followed him in a low-speed chase while he sat in the back seat with a gun to his head, threatening to shoot himself as Cowlings drove. He eventually surrendered at his home in Brentwood.

Simpson was charged with two counts of murder but was acquitted in 1995, though he was found liable for the deaths in 1997.
