So we looked in there and my cousin was like: "It's a car on the roof".'Everybody is still in shock. It's crazy.'Standstill: A speeding car hit a curb and rocks, before launching 20ft into the air and landing on a roof'Thief': Benjamin Tucker, who allegedly stole the car, was arrested by police at a nearby homeThe 25-year-old driver, Benjamin Tucker, jumped from the roof and broke his leg, police said.He was found and arrested at his ex-girlfriend's house a quarter of a mile away, according to CBS News.He had allegedly stole the car from the woman's house just minutes earlier.He was taken to hospital for treatment.Tucker, who already had two outstanding warrants for his arrest, was arrested and faces charges including hit-and-run and running away from an officer.They are investigating whether drugs or alcohol are involved.Anthony Martinez, from the Fresno Police Department, told KFSN-TV: 'I've been a police officer for 22 years and I have never seen anything like this in my life.''When I was on my way out here, my officers told me that they thought Santa was driving car.
