It definitely wasn't as premeditated - the guy in Chicago lost a civil suit and had been stewing about it for months (and the case in general for years), I think. This was definitely something that couldn't have occurred without the opportunity, but I'm betting he noticed a pattern in the manner in which law enforcement acted in the courtroom and figured he might be able to do something. Maybe he figured he wouldn't even get out of the courtroom alive, but wanted to take the Judge down with him. I bet he was as surprised as anyone to be out on the street, which is probably why he's panicking and stealing every other car on the road. He probably figured he'd either be stopped or dead by now.
