ONTARIO, Calif. (KABC) -- A suspected car thief who tried to outrun Ontario police was quickly taken into custody, and the foot chase was all caught on camera.

The Ontario Police Department posted the dramatic video to social media, saying the suspect tried to turn a stolen car incident into a cardio session earlier this month.

It shows the suspect sprinting away after police say he ditched a stolen car.

An officer took off right behind him and closed the gap fast.

Police also posted a warning to future would-be thieves, saying "our officers' fitness game is strong."
