Clear the rest of the car, please. The vehicle. I'm on the vehicle. >> Thanks, >> resist. Not until 102 for EMS. Come on up. >> On your side. >> What's your name, boss? >> All right. 911 stating that this is their receiver. >> Just take company right now. Okay. All right. West on me. Stop on 73. Slow down just in case. >> Let's go down here. >> You can make it. >> I can't make it through there. You guys can turn around. He's going south. There he is. Turn eastbound. Going back to third. Got him. go. >> Jesus, >> you're good. Let's get 108 west. >> West on Maple. Last time he was running. >> Okay, stay inside. He's driving on the sidewalk. He's driving super recklessly. Keep your kids inside. Stay inside. Going >> circus. You're doing great. You're doing great. Take a couple deep breaths. You're doing great. >> At some point, he's just going to crash. We have to understand that. Okay. Take a deep breath. You're okay. It's all right. It's okay. >> Get behind him. Get behind him. I go this way. >> You have 19 units. If you have the chance to pitch, we're box. >> Yep. >> Right there. Stop. I'll stop right there. >> Coming to the intersection. No spikes out. Hit him. Hit him. Hit him. Hit him. Careful. Slow down. Slow down. You got right there. >> Get up. [screaming] Stop. >> Now we're hearing the language of tactical containment, boxing, blocking, tire deflation, and potentially using a police vehicle to stop the suspect. These tactics aren't automatically justified simply because a pursuit is underway. The circumstances and department policy matter. But the more dangerous the suspect's driving becomes, the more officers may have to weigh the immediate threat against the risks of intervention. And here, that balance is getting harder by the second. >> Don't let him through. Don't let him through. >> All right. At this point, we're just going to have to hit him. Good job. You're all right. >> We're not trying to, ma'am. Got to get a hold of him and tell him to stop. Hey, I got this right here. I got it. I got it right here. Set up over there. He's hallucinating. >> Who is it? >> Who is it? >> My brother. >> Oh my god. Negative on spikes. Negative on spikes. >> All right. All right. >> Heading north on third. >> He's going to come back. I think if you guys stay there, I stay here. We can just throw right in the center. speed. I'm going to try to pan when we get over the bridge here. He went on back street. He's back on third. Hey, just watch out. You guys don't have a barrier, so he might run into you guys driving circles again. Come on. All right. At this point, if we get the opportunity, we just need a pin. Take a deep breath. It's okay. It's okay. >> I'm with you. You can box them in. >> Let's get behind. >> All right. 2x 2x. >> Which way? >> Well, we can't move ours. We have tire right [laughter] here. Right here. >> Body right here. Bottom right here. >> Careful. Careful. Careful. All right. All right. Let's go. Let's go. Let's go. One way out behind him out here. You're good. You're good. You're good. >> Take a deep breath. Okay. You're doing good. You're doing a great job. Continuing on track. >> If you guys want to stay here, I'm going to go try and get ahead of them. All right, slow down. Okay, we got to figure out which way he's going to go. >> Oncoming traffic now on the crossing. >> And now the pursuit has crossed another line. Literally, he's gone onto the railroad tracks. That creates an entirely different hazard. unstable terrain, limited maneuverability, and the possibility of a collision in an area never designed for normal vehicle traffic. The officers are still trying to contain him, but the environment is becoming just as dangerous as the driver. >> Still northbound. Passing the cross. >> Passing alley northbound trip down the railroad track now. Railro. Try to keep it nice and straight. Okay. You got rocks must follow the railroad track. We're going to be all [screaming] turn north. Turn north. Going into the parking lot here. Heat. Heat. Heat. Heat. You're good. Hey. Hey. >> Keep pushing. Keep pushing, guys. I'm out of [screaming] pushing. Keep pushing. Keep pushing in that [ __ ] I'm out. >> Motheruckers. radio. He's reaching in the back for something. He's reaching in the back for something. Reaching in the back for something. You did a good job. You did so good. He's in the field now. went eastbound. He is southbound at a field from that direction. 114 onto the field. Go back towards the RTC. >> Sorry, dude. Just keep pushing until we do our vehicle. >> You're good. You're good. All right, we got some more here. >> 168 has rifle at this point. Like hopefully we can get enough units to just go more east or whatever. Heat. Heat. You're good. He's going to come to a spot here where he just he's re he's reaching around in the vehicle. 49 right here. Slow down. I don't think he's going to make it out of this ditch. >> Careful. >> This is the moment the entire pursuit has been building toward. After miles of reckless driving, officers finally have an opportunity to contain the vehicle. But notice how quickly the focus shifts from pursuit to control. commands, hands visible, officers moving into position, and constant concern about what the suspect might reach for. When someone is refusing commands after a dangerous pursuit, officers have to assume uncertainty. And uncertainty is exactly what makes these final seconds so tense. Come on. >> Here we go. >> Get ready. Get ready. Get up. Get over. Okay. Show me hands. [screaming] Hands him back in behind. I got >> Someone's got pepper ball. I can pepper ball them out. Windows are down. >> I got pepper ball in here. Someone breach the side window with a 40 if we can. Get out of the vehicle. >> I got pepper. Go, go, go. Okay. Go, Pepper. Pepper out. Get out of the car [screaming] now. Pepper ball. Peppers out. Get out of here. Go. You are uncoverable. Get out of here. Whoa. Crossfire. Oh, get back here. I'm back. We're good. I cannot see in the vehicle anymore. No, it's full of pepper. He's trying to reverse it. If we can just get another squad in to ensure he can't. Engine is disabled right now. >> Fox behind clear. You got a lot of guns. >> Get back here. >> Yep, I'm good. >> When I turned like he reached up like he was point was pointing something at me like he was trying to get me to shoot him or something. >> He's hallucinating from what I heard. >> Yeah. Yeah. Start to I'm getting them ready right now. >> I see a cut on your hands. >> All right. Did your airbags go off? >> That's me right here. >> I got them. Ready? Yep. Go, go, go. Stand by. Stand by. >> If he comes out on his own, great. If not, I can send a dog in. I can use long line D. >> So, we'll go up there. Okay. Here's what we're going to do. Noah, >> you're going to stay long. >> I'm going to grab your stick. Yep. He is twice. >> We're going to be coming up to try to open the door. Watch the crossfire coming over. Yeah, we're going to back up then. >> You want to take a step back? >> And after nearly 20 minutes of chaos, it's finally over. But the arrest is only the beginning of the legal story. Six police vehicles were reportedly damaged. Two officers suffered non-life-threatening injuries, and investigators say the vehicle contained methamphetamine and other evidence. What's especially important here is what happened later. Despite the long list of alleged offenses, the case ultimately ended with a plea agreement. That means the courtroom outcome was much narrower than the chaos we just watched unfold. Get out. Get out of the car. Get out of the car. >> Clear the rest of the car, please. The vehicle. I'm the vehicle. >> Thanks, I resist. Not until gen two for EMS. Come on up. >> On your side. >> What's your name, boss? >> They grab on door and they came right out. [clears throat] And it's clear right up to the >> scene. Nathan, >> did he just get out? >> Yeah, he just got out. >> Oh, yeah, he did. Like a couple days ago, right? >> Didn't last long.
