In this BCW video, we're taking a look at how a $25 gas station shoplifting turned I-95 into an absolute mess on January 23rd in Pompano Beach. This man has a history of felony arrests going back 20 years, according to court documents. In 2018, after shoplifting two laptops, he intentionally struck an officer with his car. Pulling the baton instead of his gun or taser may have been due to the officer trying to match the level of threat he perceived, but it would prove to do little to de-escalate the situation. That sounds like sovereign citizen speak. When you made me a business and sold my bond? Notice the weapon in the man's hand now increases the perceived threat, so the officer switches to his gun. >> Got a gas hole. Leo. Vehicle leaving, it's going to be a with no uh thing on the back. Right there it's coming out to Hillsborough from 3rd Avenue. Stand by. >> According to the arrest affidavit, the man fled police for about 8 and 1/2 miles before getting onto I-95 and crashing. As the vehicle came to a stop on its side against the guardrail, one of the officers pinned it there with his patrol car. The man continued to resist, but after a minute the officers got him secured. >> I'm not going nowhere. I know I'm David. >> Robber three, also start fire rescue. For multiple multiple vehicle accident. >> If you're home >> Hey, anyone check the car? Did anybody check up here? >> News reports would show the aftermath as I-95 turned into a nightmare for drivers. 10 minutes later the man would be carried away and taken to the hospital. He got charged with assault on a Leo, battery on a Leo, fleeing and eluding, and resisting without violence. >> [music] >> His next court date is set for December 2026.
