Get out of the car. >> You're going to have to leave me. >> GIVE ME A FAVOR. GIVE ME A FAVOR. Give me a favor. I'm telling you right now. I'LL TELL YOU RIGHT NOW. STOP. >> HEY adrenaline junkies, welcome to Police Chase. Today we're kicking off a brand new series when people messed with the wrong cop where every dumb move instantly triggers justice mode. All right, let's dive in. >> Get out of here. Get out of the car. >> You're going to have to leave me. >> On July 16th, 2019 at around 11:00 a.m. in Cashion, Oklahoma, USA, police stopped 65-year-old Deborah Hamill for a broken taillight. What looked like a minor traffic issue quickly became tense. >> Do you have your driver's license and insurance on you? >> I've driven it up here. You ever seen a spinner like this? >> How long ago has it been like that? >> The officer issued an $80 citation and asked her to sign it. Hamill refused saying the problem could simply be repaired. Despite repeated explanations, the disagreement continued and the officer told her she was under arrest. >> Uh can I get you to sign there where the X is? >> So you don't even give a warning for this? >> You've been driving around for 6 months like that? >> I'm truthful. >> Well, I'm not going to give you a warning for something you've been driving for 6 months. Either way, I'm issuing you a citation. Sign there, please. >> Well, I don't want to sign it cuz I don't want to do anything. >> You don't want to sign it? >> No, because I don't think that I deserve to pay $80 for something that is fixable and I can fix it. That's all you want me to >> and step out of the car. >> Why? >> Step out of the vehicle. >> No, I'm not. >> Step out. >> No. >> Step out. I'm giving you a lawful order. Step out. >> You be fair with me and I'll be fair with you. >> Step out. >> No. >> You're under arrest. >> No, I'm not. >> I'm placing you under arrest. Step out. >> You are full of [ __ ] cuz you're not under no damn arrest. >> Step out. >> No, I'm not. >> Just do not do not take off. >> Shut up and give me that and I'll sign it. >> Step out. >> No. >> We're beyond that. >> Do you want me >> Step out. >> Hamel refused to leave the truck and then tried to drive away. After a short pursuit, the vehicle was stopped. When she continued resisting instructions, the officer used a taser to bring the situation under control. In just minutes, a small citation had turned into a serious confrontation. >> Get out [screaming] OF THE CAR. GET OUT OF THE CAR. GET OUT OF THE CAR. GET OUT OF THE CAR. GET OUT OF THE CAR. Get out of the car. >> [screaming] >> You better leave me alone. >> Put your hands behind your back. >> LEAVE ME [screaming] ALONE. >> PUT YOUR HANDS BEHIND YOUR BACK. >> I SAID, LEAVE ME ALONE. I MEAN IT. LEAVE ME ALONE. >> PUT YOUR [screaming] HANDS BEHIND YOUR BACK. PUT YOUR HANDS BEHIND YOUR BACK. >> [screaming] >> LIE DOWN AND PUT YOUR HANDS BEHIND YOUR BACK. NOW. NO, you will not. You're going to get it again. >> Medical personnel were called to check on Hamel afterward. The incident left one clear thought. Sometimes a simple disagreement can become much bigger when patience and cooperation disappear. >> Don't move. [screaming] Do me a favor. Do me a favor. Do me a favor. I'm telling you right now. I'M TELLING YOU RIGHT NOW. STOP. >> ON June 26th, 2019 at around 9:45 a.m. in Seminole County, Florida, USA, a deputy stopped a driver because the vehicle's window tint appeared too dark. At first, it was just another routine traffic stop. >> All right. You mind putting back the back down the back window, please, for me? All right. Awesome. >> While checking the driver's documents, the deputy said he noticed the smell of suspected marijuana inside the car. The driver denied having any, and the officer asked him to turn off the engine while the check continued. But, instead of settling down, the tension began to rise. >> Mr. Rudolph. >> Yes, sir. >> Is there any reason why there would be a hint faint of of weed coming out of your vehicle? Do you smoke? Do you have any friends that smoke? Anything like that? >> No. Just back there. Got a medical marijuana smoking license. >> No. So, there's no marijuana in in the car at all? Okay. And do you have a Florida health card that allows you to smoke medical marijuana? >> No, sir. >> No. Okay. What's that? >> I have a Florida medical marijuana >> Okay. It's no big deal. I mean, I'm not >> going to tell me something about medical marijuana, bro? >> Listen. >> Give me a favor. Give me a favor. Give me a favor. I'm telling you right now. I'M TELLING YOU RIGHT NOW. STOP. STOP. STOP. STOP. >> [screaming] >> PUT IT IN PARK. PUT IT IN PARK. PUT YOUR HANDS UP. >> DESPITE repeated commands to stop and show his hands, the driver began moving the car while the deputy was still beside the door. The vehicle suddenly accelerated, throwing the officer away from its side. In the 10 seconds that followed, the officer discharged his firearm, but the driver continued away from the scene. >> PARK. SIR. AH. >> BACKUP AND EMERGENCY CREWS QUICKLY arrived and fortunately no serious injuries were reported. A simple traffic stop had changed in seconds, a reminder of how one impulsive decision can put everyone nearby at risk. >> YO. YO, WHAT >> ON AUGUST 22ND, 2026 at around 9:32 p.m. in Baltimore, Maryland, USA, an officer found a vehicle with expired and suspended registration while conducting parking enforcement. A citation was issued and a tow truck was requested. At first, everything seemed routine. >> It's a pickup order on the tags. You the driver? >> No. >> Okay. It's a pickup order on the tags. >> What do you mean it's a pickup order? >> You the driver? >> No, I'm >> Oh. Okay, so it's a pickup order on the tags. >> The registered owner, 29-year-old Tyreek L. Braxton, then arrived and repeatedly denied owning the vehicle. But moments later, he entered the car, started the engine, and attempted to leave as officers moved into position. The atmosphere changed instantly. >> Yo, what the [ __ ] Yo. Get Yo. YO. YO, WHAT >> ACCORDING TO POLICE, BRAXTON ACCELERATED WHILE AN officer was beside the driver's door, forcing the officer onto the hood. The car then moved again and struck a responding patrol vehicle. Facing a rapidly escalating situation, the officer discharged his firearm to stop the threat. >> Sit down. Sit down. Sit down. Sit down. Are you up? You good? You okay? Stay with me. Stay with me, okay? >> Braxton was taken to a hospital in critical condition. Officer Samuel Thomas, a 20-year police veteran, was treated for neck and back injuries and later released. What began with an expired registration became a serious encounter, a reminder of how quickly one decision can change everything. >> Get back on the sidewalk. >> He He did it. His ass did it. >> Go to sidewalk. >> All right, get back. >> On August 16th, 2026 in North Bend, Washington, USA, deputies responded to a reported store theft involving three suspects who left in a white Kia, later confirmed to be stolen. Officers soon located the vehicle heading west on Interstate 90. >> Can I have your go ahead? I don't know if this is the relay car being driven 32 mph on the freeway. Uh going to be uh pulling up to exit 25, I-90 westbound. >> When deputies attempted to stop the Kia, the driver refused and continued along the highway, triggering a pursuit. With traffic around them, officers had to find the right moment to bring the chase to a safe end. >> When conditions allowed, a deputy performed a PIT maneuver, successfully stopping the Kia. One occupant tried to run from the scene, but another deputy quickly intercepted them. Moments later, all three suspects were in custody. >> Everybody hands up. I will LET MY DOG OUT IF YOU COME OUT THAT CAR. >> LET'S UH TAKE THIS guy out. I'm hooked up to the >> Do not drop your hands at all. Do not drop your hands at all. >> I lost my set of cuffs somewhere. >> All three were taken for medical evaluation before being booked while the investigation continued. The stolen merchandise was recovered and returned to the store. What began with missing merchandise ended on the highway, a reminder that trying to escape can turn one bad decision into a much bigger problem. >> Sit up. Sit up. Stop. >> On October 25th, 2023, in Johnson and Jackson Counties, Missouri, USA, multiple 911 callers reported a blue Chevrolet Corvette driving dangerously on US-50. Trooper Hood attempted a traffic stop, but the driver, Tyrone Vashon Robbins, continued on instead. >> Speed 73 A. Left lane. Approaching Northwest 1601. >> Approaching 1601. >> 382 dispatch due to low speeds. I'm going to upgrade capture. >> Copy that. >> you drop? >> Speed's 96, 97. We're taking off now. Speed's 109, 110. Right lane. >> The pursuit started slowly, then rapidly intensified. According to police, Robbins repeatedly changed speed, crossed lane markings, and passed other vehicles, eventually reaching 127 mph. Troopers ahead began deploying spike strips, hoping to end the pursuit before the risk grew even greater. >> Got good spikes on the right side. [music] Try to avoid them. >> 56126 56124 >> Got the right side again. >> After two spike strip deployments affected the Corvette's tires, Robbins reportedly tried to avoid a third near MO7. He lost control, made contact with a patrol vehicle, and the Corvette slid down an embankment before stopping in a ditch. Officers immediately shifted from pursuit to emergency assistance. >> They just struck They just struck a trooper car. They just struck a trooper car. 10-50. >> DRIVER, GET OUT OF THE VEHICLE RIGHT NOW. DRIVER, EXIT THE VEHICLE WITH YOUR HANDS UP. >> Robbins was taken to Research Medical Center for treatment. According to the case information, later testing detected PCP and THC, and multiple allegations were submitted including DWI, fleeing, and several traffic violations. A pursuit that began with reports of unsafe driving had become a powerful reminder of how speed and one poor decision can multiply the consequences in minutes. >> All right. I'm here at the Big Lake. All right, up here. All right, right here. They're about to PD out. Right here at the >> Get out OF THE CAR! GET OUT OF HERE! >> WELL, THEY GOT MY CAR. >> ON AUGUST 19TH, 2026, at around 11:21 p.m. on Highway 18 near Big Lake, Arkansas, USA, Trooper Teddy Henderson clocked a vehicle at 82 mph in a 60 mph zone. As he turned around to make a traffic stop, the driver accelerated, soon reaching about 130 mph. A high-speed pursuit followed toward Blytheville. Officers prepared spike strips ahead, and the deployment successfully damaged a front tire. Even then, the driver continued at high speed, passed a red light, and drifted across lanes as the tire lost pressure. >> They're about to PD out. Right here at the 16th and 18th. PD out. 10-4. >> Henderson attempted a TVI to stop the vehicle. The first attempt failed, but a second maneuver near North 16th Street finally immobilized it. Police said driver Adonorous Johnson then tried to exit through the rear and run while passenger Tedrick Washington repeatedly resisted instructions. Officers eventually brought both men under control. >> We have one in there. >> Driver! >> We got >> Hey! >> He's going out the back. We got one going out the back. Got four three males. >> Hey! Hands up! >> HANDS UP! >> HANDS UP! >> BACK SEAT, GET YOUR HANDS UP! >> GET YOUR HANDS UP! >> BACK SEAT, GET YOUR HANDS UP! >> HOLD ON! HOLD ON! >> POLICE reported that Johnson later recorded a 0.17 BAC, more than twice the standard legal limit, and faced allegations including DWI, felony fleeing, reckless driving, and resisting arrest. Washington also faced obstruction and resisting allegations while a third passenger who cooperated was released without charges. After a 130-mph pursuit, the contrast was striking. Cooperation can change how an already difficult situation ends. >> Get out! >> I'm sorry. >> Crawl out the car! CRAWL OUT! CRAWL OUT! >> ALL RIGHT, LET GO OF MY HANDS! >> CRAWL OUT OF HERE! >> ALL RIGHT, LET GO OF MY HANDS! >> CRAWL OUT! >> GET OUT OF THE CAR! >> CRAWL OUT! >> GET OUT! >> OH, BRO. >> I AGREE WITH THE POLICE. THAT'S A black male. I wish you had him run over. >> On August 17th, 2026, at around 8:27 p.m. near Little Rock, Arkansas, USA, Corporal Elkins attempted to stop a silver Dodge Ram 1500 on Interstate 430 South. Moments later, the driver, Robert Bradley sped away turning a routine stop into a high-risk pursuit. >> [music] >> As Bradley continued driving recklessly, officers looked for a safe opportunity to end the pursuit. Near the I-30 North Service Road with civilian traffic clear, a trooper moved alongside the truck and prepared a TVI at approximately 106 mph. At that speed, every second mattered. The TVI sent the Dodge off the roadway where it rolled before coming to a stop. Bradley was thrown from the vehicle while passenger Montasha Harris suffered serious leg injuries. Officers immediately switched from pursuit to rescue applying a tourniquet to Harris and providing first aid to Bradley until EMS arrived. Both were transported for medical treatment. Police later reported finding a handgun and suspected controlled substances near the scene, while the vehicle was confirmed as stolen. Investigators also learned that Harris had reportedly asked Bradley several times to let her out during the pursuit. One person's decision to keep running had placed everyone around him in a situation they never asked to face. >> Your hands up. >> Let me see your hands. Let me see your hands. Okay. Is there anybody else in the car? >> On August 21st, 2026 at around 5:23 p.m. in Blytheville, Arkansas, USA, Trooper Carter Lazenby stopped a black Ford Fusion after identifying the driver as Tylon King, who police said had active felony warrants. As soon as the stop began, King accelerated away, turning the encounter into a pursuit. King reportedly ignored a stop sign and passed multiple vehicles despite heavy traffic. Near North Lockard Street, Lazenby attempted a TVI, but King suddenly braked, causing the two vehicles to make contact. The pursuit continued and the pressure was rising with every passing second. Lazenby >> attempted a second TVI at around 36 mph. This time the maneuver worked, bringing the Ford to a stop. Officers quickly secured the scene and King was taken into custody without further confrontation. >> Damn. I can't. >> Get out the car. All right. Crawl out of the passenger side window now. >> King was evaluated by medical personnel before being transported to the Mississippi County Sheriff's Office. Police later reported finding suspected controlled substances, pills, marijuana, an open alcohol container, and several electronic devices inside the vehicle. King also reportedly refused a chemical test. What began with an attempt to avoid a warrant only created a much longer list of problems. A reminder that running rarely makes the situation disappear. >> [laughter] >> Hey. LET ME SEE YOUR HANDS. LET ME SEE YOUR HANDS. >> BUT WHEN an officer asked the driver to exit, investigators said she suddenly displayed a handgun. In just seconds, the calm scene changed [music] completely, forcing all three officers to move back and take cover. >> Let me SEE YOUR HANDS. >> [applause] >> SHOTS FIRED. SHOTS FIRED. >> TWO OFFICERS responded with their service weapons, and the driver was struck. It was a sudden high-pressure moment, one of those situations where every decision has to be made almost instantly. >> Let me SEE YOUR HANDS. SHOTS FIRED. SHOTS FIRED. >> THE DRIVER WAS taken to a hospital in stable condition, and no one else was injured. COPA later released video and other materials from the incident. What began as a simple parking violation became a reminder of how quickly an ordinary encounter can change. >> Yeah, were you parked? Yeah. Yeah. So, you don't talk to anyone. You walk. >> PUT THE GUN DOWN. PUT THE GUN DOWN. >> ON MARCH 12TH, 2021, JUST after 9:30 a.m., near Brick Church Pike and Ewing Drive in Nashville, Tennessee, USA, Officer Josh Baker noticed a black Chevrolet Camaro registered to a man with six outstanding drug-related warrants. Expecting the vehicle might flee, Baker checked for helicopter support before following it into a Dollar General parking lot, but the driver turned out to be Nika Nicole Holbert. >> Ma'am, stop. Stop going through it. You can just right back here. What did you take out of it? >> Nothing. I would never >> Okay. All right, listen. Just come back here. I think we're getting off on the wrong >> Need me code three. >> Negative. Just code two. So, it's just in here? >> Yes, sir. >> Okay. Was there >> be there in about 5 minutes, I mean. >> This is >> Yes. >> At first, Holbert cooperated, but after Baker found suspected [music] marijuana and a powdery substance in her bag and attempted to detain her while waiting for backup, the atmosphere quickly changed. Baker initially reached for his taser until he noticed Holbert had a handgun. He repeatedly ordered her to put it down. >> [screaming] >> Help me! >> [screaming] >> HELP! HELP! HELP! >> STEP OUT! MA'AM, PUT THE GUN DOWN! PUT THE GUN DOWN! >> ACCORDING TO POLICE, HOLBERT fired and Baker was struck in the side just below his protective vest. Baker responded with his service weapon. In only seconds, a conversation in a parking lot had become a frightening confrontation [music] where every reaction mattered. >> Step out! Ma'am, PUT THE GUN DOWN! PUT THE GUN DOWN! 23 SHOTS FIRED. >> HOLBERT THEN DROVE away in the Camaro, but left the road about a block later. Responding officers provided emergency aid before she was transported to a hospital. Baker underwent surgery and was reported in stable condition. What began as a vehicle check became a sobering reminder of how quickly a routine encounter can take an unexpected turn. >> Hey, put that gun down. >> On March 1st, 2021 at around 7:00 p.m. near 1st Avenue and Harbor Drive in San Diego, California, USA, a Harbor Police officer stopped a black sedan after noticing a traffic violation. Suspecting the driver might be impaired, the officer asked him to step out for further evaluation. At first, it appeared to be another routine traffic stop. >> Hey. Hey, how you doing, bud? >> Hey, how you doing? >> Come here. >> Hey, put that gun down. >> But as the driver stepped out, investigators said he produced a handgun. The officer immediately reacted with his service weapon, and the driver also fired during the confrontation. In a matter of seconds, a quiet roadside check had become a tense situation with people nearby suddenly at risk. >> [snorts] >> Shots fired. Shots fired. Hey. >> Neither the officer nor the driver was struck, but a nearby pedestrian was hit by a stray round. Remarkably, an object inside the pedestrian's pocket prevented it from breaking the skin, a small detail that could have changed the outcome entirely. >> Hey. Officer, shots fired. >> Officer officers took the driver, identified as 29-year-old Daniel Quiroz, into custody without further incident. The pedestrian was examined at a hospital and later released. Quiroz was booked into county jail on attempted murder and related charges while investigators recovered a firearm from the scene. What began with one traffic violation became another reminder of how a single decision can change an ordinary evening in seconds. >> Anybody with you? Is there anybody with you? Is there anybody with you? Are you hurt? Are you hurt? Are you hurt? On August 7th, 2026 at around 6:21 p.m. near South Hamilton Road in Columbus, Ohio, USA, police responded after a silver sedan reportedly ran a red light, crossed the median, and collided with another vehicle. The driver, identified as 32-year-old Brandon Berteaux, allegedly fired toward the other vehicle before leaving on foot. Soon, 911 callers reported seeing a man carrying two handguns through the neighborhood. >> 4571, hold the air. 10-3. Hey, man, it's police. Don't do it. Don't do it. Don't do it, bro. Hey, man, come on. Put the Put the guns down. PUT THE GUNS DOWN. Put the guns down, bro. Come on. Come on. Come on. Put the guns down. About 20 minutes later, officers found Berteaux outside a home on Erington Road, still holding both firearms. Body cam footage captured a tense standoff as officers kept their distance and repeatedly urged him to put the weapons down. Minute after minute passed with police trying to protect everyone nearby while bringing the situation under control. It ain't worth it to die for. Come on, man. What's your name? What's your name? Come on, dude. Don't Don't do it. Don't do it, bro. Don't >> come on. Come on. No, he wasn't shooting in the air. Like over here. The call we got was that he shot in the air somewhere. But he was like I mean, I don't know if you how soon you got here. He was holding it up in the air like he was going to shoot. If he shoots up in the air, we're going to we're going to be in a bad spot. Keep that muzzle pointed in a safe direction, please. >> Huh? LOOK LIKE THIS. GO FIRE THE GUN. >> SHORTLY AFTER 7:00 P.M., POLICE SAID Burtick pointed the weapons toward officers and fired. Several officers responded and one officer was grazed during the exchange. Remarkably, Burtick was not struck. Even after that frightening moment, officers continued calling for him to put the guns down rather than letting the confrontation escalate further. Can you guys see him? >> Yeah, I got him. Hold on, I forgot to see him. >> That's him. >> Try to find the car still. >> Throw the car. >> All right, you know what? I got a shield ON MY WAY. >> EVENTUALLY, BURTICK DROPPED both firearms and was taken into custody. He was later charged with felonious assault while authorities said one of the weapons had previously been reported stolen. He was held on a $3 million bond as the investigation continued. After more than [music] 20 tense minutes, patience and repeated commands helped bring an unpredictable standoff to a controlled end. >> Go crossfire. GUN DOWN. GUN DOWN. >> ON APRIL 13TH, 2026 in Hillsborough County, Florida, USA, the Florida Highway Patrol was called to assist the Hillsborough County Sheriff's Office after a white Mercedes-Benz SUV reportedly fled from a traffic stop. What began as a routine roadside encounter quickly turned into a coordinated pursuit. FHP units joined the search and tracked the Mercedes while officers coordinated over the radio. As the SUV continued moving, every additional mile brought more uncertainty. The priority was clear, stop the vehicle while keeping other motorists out of danger. After several tense minutes, officers finally brought the Mercedes to a stop. Units quickly surrounded the SUV and gave firm commands for the driver to step out. This was the critical moment after all that uncertainty on the road. One decision from behind the wheel could determine how the encounter ended. The driver was secured and officers checked the scene for any additional threats before turning their attention to whether medical assistance was needed. The pursuit was finally over. What started with a decision to flee ended surrounded by law enforcement. A reminder that trying to escape a [music] traffic stop often creates far greater consequences than simply pulling over. On July 26th, 2026 in Thurston County, Washington, USA, deputies and Yelm police responded to reports that a domestic violence suspect was violating a no-contact order. The suspect had previously been arrested on multiple charges, posted a $75,000 bail, then failed to appear in court while allegedly making threats toward law enforcement. Authorities believed he could be armed. When deputies attempted a traffic stop, the suspect sped away on a motorcycle, leading officers on a pursuit at speeds exceeding 120 mph. As the chase headed back toward the more populated area of Yelm, deputies worked together to safely bring it under control before more people were placed at risk. >> Going southbound on to James Block [music] on Field Road. >> A deputy moved ahead of the motorcycle and gradually boxed the rider in. The suspect tried to escape by riding through a roadside ditch, but lost control and crashed. Within moments, deputies secured the scene and took him into custody. >> I got his cell phone. Call the 1200 block of our block in CDA. How many jobs have I done so far? >> The suspect was taken to a hospital for treatment before being booked on multiple allegations, including violating a court order, attempting to elude law enforcement, and outstanding warrants linked to earlier [music] domestic violence and burglary-related cases. The incident highlights the importance of coordinated police work in protecting the public from high-risk pursuits. At approximately 10:30 p.m. on June 30th, 2022, in Coweta County, Georgia, USA, a state trooper spotted a red Hyundai Elantra speeding along Interstate 85 South. After the driver ignored warning lights, the trooper initiated a traffic stop, but the vehicle accelerated away instead. The driver crossed medians, entered the wrong side of the road, and continued driving recklessly through several roads. Another trooper joined the pursuit while officers carefully coordinated their movements to reduce the risk to other drivers. After an initial PIT maneuver failed, a second attempt successfully brought the vehicle to a stop. The driver then ran into a wooded area, but troopers gave chase and safely took him into custody after repeated commands to stop. EMS evaluated the suspect at the scene before he was transported to a hospital for medical clearance and later booked into the Coweta County Sheriff's Office. The incident shows how coordinated teamwork and patience can safely resolve even the most dangerous pursuits. >> [music] >> At approximately 7:20 p.m. on February 19th, 2024 in Bryant, Arkansas, USA, officers responded to a report of a domestic disturbance involving a man and a woman inside a pickup truck. As police arrived, the woman safely stepped out, but the driver refused to stop. We're going We're going the loop now. Pull over. >> [screaming] >> He just dumped something out of the window right here. >> All right, check what's on the loop. He threw something out on the loop. I want to follow him going south on 183. >> The suspect sped through several jurisdictions, prompting a coordinated response from multiple law enforcement agencies. As traffic continued around them, officers remained focused on ending the pursuit before anyone else was placed in danger. >> He's still on the south service road passing over 183. >> You missed your You have passed your exit. >> Jack, still caught him. >> He's going 68 miles an hour. Traffic is moving. >> I'll see you I'll see your triple. >> Arkansas State Police eventually carried out a well-timed PIT maneuver, bringing the truck to a safe stop. Officers quickly secured the scene and took the driver into custody without further escalation. >> [screaming] >> Investigators later found the suspect wearing body armor and carrying empty holsters. Fortunately, no one was injured. The incident is another reminder that remaining calm and complying with lawful commands can prevent a dangerous situation from becoming even worse. At approximately 4:30 p.m. on June 10th, 2024, in Scott County, Arkansas, USA, a state trooper spotted a gray Kia passing vehicles across a double yellow line and driving recklessly along Highway 253. When the trooper activated emergency lights and sirens, the driver chose to flee. The pursuit continued for several miles as the driver ignored traffic laws and created a serious risk for everyone nearby. Waiting for the right opportunity, troopers remained patient knowing that timing could make all the difference. Once traffic cleared, a trooper carried out a tactical vehicle intervention, forcing the Kia safely off the roadway. Officers quickly secured the vehicle and took both the driver, Target, and passenger, Wilson, into custody without further resistance. A search of the vehicle uncovered suspected methamphetamine, used syringes, and additional suspected drugs hidden by the passenger. A civilian driver involved in a minor collision during the pursuit was taken to a hospital for evaluation. The case serves as another reminder that reckless decisions on the road can place many innocent people at risk. Hey, pop. You popping the trunk? >> On April 25th, 2024, during traffic enforcement on State Road 52 near Kent Grove Road in Florida, USA, a trooper spotted a white Nissan Altima traveling at an estimated 100 mph. After catching up, the vehicle was clocked between 103 and 111 mph in a 45-mph zone. Lights and sirens came on, but the driver kept going. The Nissan ran a red light, made several U-turns, and eventually entered the Suncoast Parkway, where speeds climbed above 115 mph. Police said the driver passed other vehicles using the shoulder and median, turning every mile into another risk for people who had nothing to do with the pursuit. Sergeant Dominique Howard later took the lead, but the driver still refused to stop. >> The danger peaked when the Nissan lost control near State Road 54 and began traveling the wrong way down an entrance ramp toward oncoming traffic. With other motorists now directly at risk, Sergeant Howard performed a PIT maneuver while another trooper helped block the Nissan from escaping again. After such extreme speeds, everything came down to just a few seconds. The driver tried to leave through the passenger side and according to police, resisted officers before being taken into custody. A prescription bottle found inside the Nissan helped identify him as DeMarco Lee Earls Jr. whose Florida license was suspended. What began as excessive speeding ended with an arrest, a costly reminder that refusing to stop can turn one traffic violation into a far more serious situation. On August 11th, 2024 at around 7:30 p.m. on US Highway 319 near Conner Boulevard in Tallahassee, Florida, USA, Trooper C. Blount noticed a black Infiniti Q50 make a dangerous lane change, forcing another driver to swerve away. Blount activated his lights and siren. The Infiniti appeared ready to stop, but suddenly accelerated away. The driver weave through traffic, ran multiple red lights, and crossed no passing zones as speeds climbed rapidly. Police said the Infiniti reached more than 80 mph in a 25 mph zone, continued quickly through Tom Brown Park, and later exceeded 120 mph on Appalachee Parkway. It briefly pulled over, only to accelerate again as the trooper approached. Moments later, the pursuit reportedly reached more than 130 mph. Near Chaires Cross Road, the Infiniti finally slowed to about 56 miles per hour. Seeing a safer opportunity to end the danger, Blount performed a PIT maneuver and successfully brought the vehicle to a stop. After miles of uncertainty, the chase ended in seconds before another driver on the road was placed at even greater risk. >> Stop right there. Go. Back on the park. WHAT ARE YOU DOING IN THE PARK NOW? GET OUT. STEP OUT. ANY MORE PEOPLE IN THE CAR? STEP OUT OF THE CAR. Step out right here. Stop. Put your hands on the trunk right there. Go on the ground. Right there. >> The driver, identified as Cedric Perry Jr., and his passenger, Ajuris Joseph, exited with their hands visible and were detained. Officers later found about 35 g of a substance that field tested positive for marijuana. Joseph was released without charges, while Perry was arrested on fleeing and drug-related allegations and taken to Leon County Jail. One unsafe lane change had grown into a high-speed pursuit, a reminder of how quickly one poor decision can create consequences far beyond the original traffic stop. >> [ __ ] >> On January 26, 2024, while traveling east on Interstate 20 near mile marker 86 in Georgia, USA, a trooper spotted a red motorcycle with no visible license plate. Lights and sirens were activated, but the rider, later identified as Jaythan Clayton, looked back several times before accelerating away. What could have been a simple traffic stop was suddenly heading in a very different direction. >> Did you pop the road? I'm 10-80. >> Other troopers positioned ahead tried to slow Clayton down, but he continued past them. His speed kept climbing until police radar recorded 137 mph. At that pace, there was almost no room for error, and every second on the highway carried greater risk for everyone nearby. Near mile marker 97, a trooper noticed sparks coming from the motorcycle and moved ahead to create a rolling roadblock. Clayton attempted to pass through the grassy area beside the patrol vehicle, but moments later the motorcycle lost stability and went down. After miles of pursuit, everything changed in an instant. >> Troopers quickly secured Clayton and called paramedics after he complained of leg pain. A records check later revealed an outstanding warrant related to a probation violation, while records indicated the motorcycle had not been registered since June 2010. What began with a missing plate ended with medical evaluation and legal consequences, a reminder that trying to outrun a traffic stop can turn a small problem into something far more serious. On October 30th, 2025 at approximately 10:56 p.m. in Oklahoma, USA, an Oklahoma Highway Patrol Trooper spotted a pickup truck speeding along Highway 70 without headlights. Weaving through traffic at night, the driver ignored the emergency lights, turning a routine traffic stop into a dangerous pursuit. The 20-year-old driver pushed the truck beyond 100 mph, swerving through intersections and forcing other drivers to react. At one point, he even steered toward the patrol vehicle, creating an extremely risky situation. Despite the pressure, the Trooper stayed composed, carefully waiting for the right moment to act.
