Jimmy Kimmel is getting out of dodge after he was suspended by ABC — and we captured him bolting to his vehicle!
TMZ shot video of the embattled late-night host rushing into his Chevy Silverado inside a garage Wednesday night in Los Angeles.
Check out the footage … Jimmy, dressed down in a flannel shirt, jeans, sneakers and a baseball cap, dashes into the backseat of the SUV with the help of his handler.

Hours earlier, ABC announced Jimmy was suspended for comments he made on “Jimmy Kimmel Live” about the murder of Charlie Kirk.
During Monday’s show, Jimmy said … “We hit some new lows over the weekend with the MAGA gang desperately trying to characterize this kid who murdered Charlie Kirk as anything other than one of them and doing everything they can to score political points from it.”
Nexstar Media Group — which owns a bunch of ABC affiliates — piled on, saying … “Nexstar strongly objects to recent comments made by Mr. Kimmel concerning the killing of Charlie Kirk and will replace the show with other programming in its ABC-affiliated markets.”

We’re told Jimmy was in his TV studio when the bad news broke and he eventually left, ducking into the garage to make his getaway. Guillermo, Jimmy’s sidekick, was also there and seen chatting with staffers after ABC’s announcement.
President Trump, of course, was all too happy to dance on Jimmy’s grave, congratulating ABC on Truth Social for a job well done. Trump also called Kimmel’s show “ratings challenged” and Kimmel himself a no talent.
