Shots fired. >> On Wednesday, July 17th, 2024 at approximately 10:30 p.m. in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, USA, Milwaukee police officers responded to a reported shooting at a gas station on W Capitol Drive. What seemed like a routine emergency quickly unfolded into a tense and unpredictable encounter that no one expected. >> Let me see your hands. Let me see your hands. What's going on? What's going on? >> As officers arrived, they located a 22-year-old man later identified as Jimar Gregory, who was wanted in connection with a previous double shooting. All right, the suspect moved toward the back of the store and ignored repeated commands such as "Show me your hands" and "Drop the gun." >> Show me your hands. DROP THE GUN. SHOW ME YOUR HANDS. >> HEY. >> HEY, SHOW ME YOUR HANDS. >> SHOW ME YOUR HANDS RIGHT NOW. >> SHOW ME YOUR HANDS RIGHT NOW. >> SHOW ME YOUR HANDS. >> LET ME SEE YOUR HANDS. >> PUT YOUR HANDS UP NOW. >> SHOTS FIRED. >> MOMENTS LATER, HE POINTED A FIREARM and fired toward officers and people inside the building, forcing everyone to react within seconds. >> PUT YOUR HANDS UP NOW. SHOTS FIRED. GET DOWN. >> SHOTS FIRED. SHOTS FIRED. >> SHOTS FIRED. [ __ ] GET BACK. >> STAY THERE. STAY THERE. >> 40, he's >> actively shooting. >> Let me get all squad back here. >> Shots fired. >> Officers immediately moved to cover while continuing to give clear commands. Instead of surrendering, the suspect ran out of the store and continued firing in the officers' direction. Several officers responded to stop the immediate threat, and after a brief struggle, the suspect was safely taken into custody. In moments like these, every decision can mean the difference between protecting innocent lives and allowing danger to spread further. >> Stay there. Maniac, stay there. Maniac, cover now. Maniac. Back up. >> No other civilians were reported injured during the incident. Gregory was taken to a local hospital for treatment of non-life-threatening injuries, and investigators recovered a rifle at the scene. Authorities later confirmed he faced multiple criminal charges related to this incident, while the officers involved were placed on routine administrative leave as the investigation continued. This case is another reminder that ignoring lawful commands can turn an already dangerous situation into one with lasting consequences for everyone involved. >> I got it right here. I'm going to grab my flashlight. >> I got medical for the officers or for the suspect? >> On Sunday, June 30th, 2024, at approximately 6:50 a.m. in Thousand Oaks, California, USA, deputies responded to a report involving a man holding a knife on Avenida de los Arboles, west of Erbes Road. What began as an attempt to calm the situation soon turned into a fast-moving and highly dangerous encounter. >> I'm not I'm going to shoot you. >> Deputies identified the man as 37-year-old Adon Perez Hernandez. During the encounter, he was seen holding a knife and another object that appeared to resemble a bow. Officers repeatedly shouted, "Drop the weapon," but Hernandez continued moving toward one of the deputies [music] instead of complying. With every step forward, the pressure on everyone at the scene continued to rise. >> Get down. GET DOWN. >> STATION ONE, SHOTS FIRED. SHOTS FIRED. >> WHEN THE suspect continued advancing despite repeated warnings, deputies were forced to respond to stop the immediate threat. Once the situation was under control, officers immediately approached, secured the scene, and provided emergency aid while requesting medical personnel. In moments like these, officers often have only seconds to make decisions intended to protect both themselves and the public. Hernandez was transported to a local hospital in critical but stable condition. Investigators recovered a knife and another object resembling a bow at the scene. Weeks later, he was arrested on felony charges including brandishing a deadly weapon at an officer and resisting an executive officer. The case serves as another reminder that choosing cooperation over confrontation can help prevent situations from escalating beyond control. >> Drop it. Put it away. >> Shots fired. Shots fired. >> I'M ON THE GROUND. >> DO NOT REACH FOR ANYTHING. >> ON July 8th, 2024, in Cleveland, Ohio, USA, a Cleveland police officer approached a man sitting near the north security checkpoint at Cleveland Hopkins International Airport after noticing he was in a place where travelers expected safety. The situation quickly became one that demanded calm under pressure. >> Excuse me. >> Drop. Turn around. >> Excuse me. >> Turn around. >> Excuse me. >> Watch out. Watch out. >> You watch out. >> Watch out. Watch out. >> Watch out. >> Watch out. >> The man, later identified as 37-year-old Samir Faraj, claimed the machete was his treasure, not a weapon. When the officer instructed him to turn around, he suddenly ran away pushing past another person. Moments later, Faraj held the blade near himself, ignored repeated commands to get on the ground and shouted that he was being peaceful. Even after tasers were deployed, the situation remained unresolved because they failed to take effect through his heavy clothing. >> On the ground. On the GROUND RIGHT NOW. DUDE, ON THE GROUND. >> I'M A PROPHET PEOPLE. I'm a prophet people, please. I got to GO TO JERUSALEM. >> ON THE GROUND. DO NOT REACH FOR ANYTHING. SIR, DO NOT REACH FOR ANYTHING. DO NOT REACH. >> GET THEM GUNS. >> Do not reach. >> Get them guns down on the floor. >> Do not reach. >> Body camera footage captured Farraj waving the machete through the air while demanding officers put their guns on the ground. As frightened passengers screamed and backed away, officers carefully closed the distance without rushing in. After climbing over several barriers, Farraj eventually landed on a lower stairway where officers safely moved in and placed him into custody. Sometimes patience and teamwork become the most effective tools for protecting everyone nearby. >> Grab it. Get him. >> Investigators later recovered a machete, two knives, a hatchet, and a weighted jump rope from Farraj. Following his arrest, he was taken for a psychological evaluation and a judge later set his bond at $50,000 during his court appearance. The incident serves as a reminder that remaining calm, following lawful instructions, and resolving conflicts peacefully can help prevent fear and uncertainty from spreading in public places. >> They're trying to change ME INTO A DOG. THEY'RE TRYING TO CHANGE ME TO A DOG. >> DON'T DO IT. PUT YOUR HANDS UP. >> ON SUNDAY, JUNE 9TH, 2024, at approximately 7:18 p.m. in Pomona, California, USA, officers responded to a report of a domestic disturbance involving a firearm on Los Brisas Circle. Before police arrived, 60-year-old Kenneth Jennerdini had already driven away, leaving a tense situation still unfolding. >> GET YOUR HANDS UP. GET YOUR HANDS UP. DON'T MOVE OR ANYTHING YOU CAN GET SHOT. >> OFFICERS LOCATED THE SUSPECT after his vehicle collided with another driver at Holt Avenue and White Avenue. They tried to negotiate a peaceful surrender, but the situation changed within moments. >> Get out of the car with your hands up. Keep your hands where I can see them or you're going to get bit. Get out of the car with your hands up or you're going to get bit by dog. Get out of the car. >> When the suspect reached for a firearm and pointed it toward officers, they acted immediately to stop the threat. At the same time, a SWAT BearCat safely rescued the uninvolved driver from the danger zone. In critical moments like these, protecting innocent lives comes first. >> KEEP YOUR HANDS UP, SIR. >> LET ME SEE YOUR HANDS. >> SIR, DON'T DO IT. PUT YOUR HANDS UP. >> POLICE, POLICE, POLICE. >> THE SUSPECT WAS TAKEN to a local hospital and was expected to recover, while the other driver also received medical care. The incident is a reminder that a single emotional decision can quickly spiral into a situation with lasting consequences. >> Fire. >> 998. >> Fire. >> Don't move. >> On Saturday, September 23rd, 2023, after dark, in Florida, USA, officers with the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission stopped the 23-year-old woman after she was suspected of operating a jet ski while impaired. What started as a routine water patrol soon became an important reminder about safety on the water. Body camera footage shows officers remaining calm as they removed the woman's life jacket, secured her belongings, and explained each step of the process. After completing the required observation period, the officer carefully read her Miranda rights before asking if she wished to answer any questions. She politely declined. Throughout the encounter, both the officers and the woman remained cooperative and respectful. The situation stayed calm from beginning to end, showing how professionalism and clear communication can help reduce tension even during an arrest. >> Step up. One, two, three. All right. >> The woman was charged with boating under the influence, and the body camera recording became part of the official case documentation. The incident serves as a reminder that operating any vehicle, whether on the road or on the water, requires sound judgment because one careless decision can put many people at risk. >> Uh go ahead and stand up for me. And we are going to be on on Oh, yeah. Let's I mean, I'm Yeah, sit sit down real quick. Let's see. Let's see something real quick. Sorry. I'm going to read you the the Miranda warning. You have the right to remain silent. Anything you say can and will be used against you in a court of law. You have the right to talk to a lawyer or have them present while you uh are being questioned. If you can't afford a lawyer, one will be hired for you. One will be appointed to you to Now you can stand up. Come on. >> On December 27th, 2020 at approximately 11:15 p.m. on Interstate 95 near Pooler, Georgia, USA, Officer Andrew Jenkins spotted a silver GMC Envoy traveling at 91 mph in a 70 mph zone. What began as a routine traffic stop quickly turned into a dangerous highway pursuit. Instead of pulling over, the driver accelerated to more than 100 mph while throwing items out of the window. Multiple officers joined the pursuit as the SUV raced onto Interstate 16, creating a serious risk for everyone sharing the road. After stop sticks failed to bring the vehicle to a halt, troopers decided the pursuit had become too dangerous to continue. A carefully executed PIT maneuver safely ended the chase, sending the SUV into a guardrail. However, the driver abandoned the vehicle and disappeared into nearby woods before officers could reach him. Officers and a K9 team searched the area for an extended time, but were unable to locate the driver. Investigators later contacted the registered owner who identified the driver only as a friend named James. The case is a reminder that a simple traffic violation can quickly escalate, leaving behind consequences that last far longer than the pursuit itself. On November 10th, 2022, near GA-36 and GA-212 in Newton County, Georgia, USA, troopers joined a pursuit involving a Honda Accord believed to be connected to an ongoing missing person investigation. What started as an effort to locate a vehicle soon became a race to protect everyone on the road. >> 901 team radio I'm helping another jurisdiction in a 10-80. 36 is now on the charge. We're slide filing 36. >> The driver refused to stop, speeding through traffic and crossing the double yellow line to pass other vehicles. As the pursuit continued toward a busy roundabout and several residential neighborhoods, officers knew the danger was increasing with every mile. >> To prevent the situation from escalating, a trooper carefully executed a PIT maneuver when the road ahead was clear. As the suspect suddenly swerved toward a turning lane where another vehicle was waiting, the officer adjusted his steering to avoid an innocent driver. The Honda left the roadway, struck a neighborhood sign, and the suspect was safely taken into custody. The driver, later identified as Jesse Hardeman, was found to have multiple outstanding legal issues. A search warrant later led investigators to recover several loaded firearms, ammunition, and other items believed to be connected to additional investigations. The case is a reminder that fleeing from law enforcement often leads to far more serious consequences than the original situation. >> You blowed your transmission, didn't you? I think so. Was that his lane? >> I had smoke pouring out. >> Yeah, wouldn't mind. >> On Wednesday, March 15th, 2023 at approximately 4:53 a.m. in Bangor Township, Michigan, USA, deputies responded to a break-in at Smoke Society after the store security system alerted the owner. Within minutes, a black GMC pickup believed to be involved was spotted on Interstate 75, setting the stage for a dangerous pursuit before sunrise. >> The driver refused to stop and began weaving through traffic, even entering oncoming lanes while items were thrown from the truck. Every mile increased the risk to innocent drivers, leaving troopers with little time to decide how to end the pursuit safely. Near the Bridgeport exit, Michigan State Police carried out a carefully planned PIT maneuver, bringing the pickup to a stop. Several occupants ran into nearby fields, but officers, supported by a K9 unit and a police helicopter, quickly secured the area and took them into custody. Calm teamwork once again proved more effective than panic. Five suspects were arrested, and investigators recovered a large quantity of marijuana and merchandise believed to have been taken from the store. Authorities are also examining whether the case is connected to a series of similar break-ins in the area. The incident is another reminder that running from responsibility often leads to even greater legal consequences. >> Get Get her. >> Drop the knife. >> Drop the knife. Drop the knife. Drop the knife. DROP THE KNIFE, SUSAN. GET YOUR TASER. >> ON MARCH 16TH, 2026, shortly after 2:00 a.m. in Lanoka Harbor, New Jersey, USA, four Lacey Township police officers responded to a home on Hemlock Drive after a 911 call from 55-year-old Suzanne Clark, who believed she was having a serious medical emergency. What sounded like a routine welfare check quickly became something far more unpredictable. >> Hello, it's your here. Hello. Can you come to the door? It's Lacey police. Are you Suzanne? Can you come to the door, please? >> The officers spoke with Clark through a window [music] and repeatedly asked her to open the door so they could check on her. She refused and told them to leave. As EMS waited outside, officers stayed on scene for nearly 30 minutes trying to calm the situation while noticing unusual movements inside the house. >> We're not spying, ma'am. Ma'am, you called and said you're having a heart attack. Wait, can Ma'am. Ma'am, take a break. [music] We're not harassing you. >> Okay. Something's not right. Let's go. 1 2 3. >> Ready, Floyd? >> 1 2 3. 1 2 3. 1 2 3. All right. >> Concern grew after an officer spotted what appeared to be an injured dog through the back glass door. As officers attempted to enter, Clark suddenly came outside holding a knife and moved toward [music] them despite repeated commands to stop. >> Who do you call? >> She came out with a knife. >> Drop the knife. Drop the knife. Drop the knife. Drop the knife. DROP THE KNIFE, SUSAN. GET YOUR TASER. >> WITH ONLY MOMENTS TO REACT, an officer discharged his service weapon to end the immediate threat. >> All right. All right. Secure your weapon. Grab your first aid kit. Susan, stay still, okay? >> Officers immediately provided medical aid and secured the scene. A knife was recovered, and later information confirmed that Clark's two dogs were safe. The incident is a reminder that every emergency call can change in an instant, and that staying calm and cooperating with first responders can make a difficult situation safer for everyone involved. >> We got that knife. >> I want to grab that knife. >> I got the knife here. Okay. Let's start getting pressure on these wounds. >> Okay. That's crazy. >> That's crazy. Stop resisting. Stop. >> On July 11th, 2026, shortly before 5:00 p.m. in Palm Coast, Florida, USA, Flagler County deputies responded to a home after receiving a report of a heated domestic argument. At first, it seemed like a disagreement between a couple, but officers knew that calls like these can change in an instant. A man told deputies that he was packing his belongings to move out when 34-year-old Sophia Zvarich pushed him and briefly blocked him from leaving a closet. When deputies tried to hear her side of the story, she refused to identify herself, demanded to speak only with a female deputy, and shut the door. Even then, officers remained calm and continued trying to resolve the situation peacefully. After deputies informed Zvarich that she was being taken into custody on several allegations related to the incident, she became physically resistant and kicked one deputy. Even after being placed in the patrol car, [music] she managed to slip out of her handcuffs and continued resisting as deputies secured them again. Moments like these show [music] how quickly a routine call can become challenging. >> If you push it you have to >> What are you What are you grabbing him >> Deputies eventually brought the situation under control and transported Zavarice to the Sheriff Perry Hall Inmate Detention Facility. She was booked on allegations including domestic battery, false imprisonment, resisting an officer with violence, and battery on a law enforcement officer before later being released on bond. The case is another reminder that staying calm and cooperating with officers is often the safest path for everyone involved. >> Ow. >> Well, you're not really complying with the >> An Orange County deputy was patrolling near the Save Discount store on North Hiawassee Road when he noticed a man inside a fenced area behind the building. It looked like a simple suspicious person check, but within moments the situation changed dramatically. >> Hey boss. What are you doing? Come on. What are you doing? Be careful. >> The deputy approached 24-year-old Charles Saint Fleur and asked what he was doing there. Instead of answering, Saint Fleur climbed over the fence, grabbed a bag from the ground, and tried to run. When the deputy attempted to stop him, a violent struggle broke out with the suspect repeatedly striking the deputy and forcing him to the ground. >> Careful. >> During the struggle, two firearms were thrown onto the ground nearby. After more than a minute of fighting, Saint Fleur broke away and ran toward the weapons. Realizing the danger could escalate within seconds, the deputy regained his footing and discharged his service weapon, bringing the confrontation to an end. It was a split-second decision made under intense pressure. >> [groaning] >> Deputies immediately provided medical aid until paramedics arrived. Both Saint Fleur and the deputy were taken to the hospital where they were reported to be in stable condition. The incident highlights how quickly a routine encounter can turn into a life-threatening situation, and why cooperation during police encounters is often the safest choice for everyone involved. >> Shots fired. >> Drop it. DROP IT. DROP IT. >> ON MAY 9TH, 2025, at around 6:30 a.m. in Bakersfield, California, USA, Kern County Sheriff's deputies were dispatched to Water Street after reports of a man carrying a hammer, a machete, and a firearm. What officers expected to be a high-risk response quickly became even more dangerous. >> My name is Giovanni, please hurry up. I'll call my sister. You're not nothing. >> Ma'am, when you're crying, I can't understand what you're saying, okay? >> You know, Giovanni is a brother to the church. >> Has he shot the firearm at all, or is he just threatening you with it? >> He's got He was supposed to open the gun when I go to the open the the door, but I don't open. >> When deputies arrived, they located 42-year-old Saudi Giovanni Diaz holding a firearm. Body cam footage shows Diaz raising the gun toward a deputy. Leaving officers with only moments to assess the rapidly unfolding situation, every command was clear, but the tension continued to rise. >> Weapon on point. Drop it. DROP IT. DROP IT. DROP IT. >> HEY, I'M HIT. >> DURING THE CONFRONTATION, a deputy discharged his service weapon. Despite being struck, Diaz continued raising the firearm and fired, injuring one deputy in the hand. Officers also found a woman nearby who reported she had been struck during the incident. In just a few seconds, a routine response had turned into a scene where every decision mattered. >> 205 atom 999 >> Deputies quickly secured the area and provided emergency medical aid to everyone involved. Diaz was later taken into custody and faced multiple allegations, including attempted murder, kidnapping, burglary, assault on a peace officer, and firearm-related offenses. The injured deputy received treatment and recovered. The case is another reminder that officers often face unpredictable dangers while working to protect their communities. >> My finger. Yeah, I could shoot. >> A hit-and-run victim in South Carolina, USA spotted the suspected >> driver again and quickly alerted highway patrol troopers, setting off a tense chain of events. >> 10-38 We got him. The runaway driver is stopped. 8-3 He's taking off on me. >> [music] >> Can we get a unit to meet me? 8-1 from 10-0 >> the suspect appeared calm and even pulled over to the side of the road, but only seconds later, the driver suddenly sped away, forcing troopers into a dangerous pursuit through traffic. >> back onto I-26. 10-12, what you're seeing is private. All right, he's stuck. He's 250 in my car. STOP THE CAR! STOP THE CAR! HE'S NOT GOING TO STOP, DUDE. STOP RESISTING. DO ME A FAVOR, GET OUT OF HIS CAR. All right, getting out. Okay, he's going the wrong way on 26. Going back southbound on 85. Southbound Wrong way on He's going wrong way, I can get him. Where are you? Find his car. 50-60 Safely pinned him, dude. What's your speed in driver? >> Well, I'm 47. We just got back on the exit 68. I'm trying to pay it. >> What are any words? Can you zoom out? What's your speed in there? >> 250 250 >> 250 >> He's taking off again. >> As the chase intensified, the suspect struck a patrol vehicle while trying to escape. Troopers then made the decision to perform a PIT maneuver, hoping to end the situation before anyone nearby got hurt. >> What's your car 10-20? Speed is >> Taking a right on North Blackstock. He's going behind the Bonnie plants. >> Although one trooper briefly lost sight of the vehicle, the investigation continued as authorities worked to track down the suspect. Moments like this are a reminder that running from responsibility often creates even bigger consequences. >> Speed and traveling location. >> Hey, hey, hey. [ __ ] >> On the afternoon of May 13th, 2026, deputies in Marion County, Florida, USA, responded to a report of a suspicious person near a residential area in Dunnellon. >> Hey, hey, hey, you [ __ ] >> As Deputy Robert Fitch stepped out of his patrol vehicle, the situation suddenly escalated. Investigators said the suspect rushed toward the deputy and a violent struggle [music] broke out within seconds before the suspect fled into a nearby wooded area. >> Come here now. >> 26, situation will be 10-33 for now. Current any in the in the area of 11770 Northwest 11th Place. Signal 13, any else? Signal 15. >> Put your hands now. >> 57-62 advising Hispanic male, [music] green shirt, running through woods and knives. >> Moments later, additional deputies arrived and quickly surrounded the area. When the suspect emerged from the woods, officers were able to safely take him into custody before the situation became even more dangerous. Authorities later said the deputy's protective vest likely prevented far more serious injuries. >> Drop what you got. GET ON THE GROUND NOW. He's got a knife. He's got a knife. Get on the ground now. He's got a knife. That's it. He come at me fast. [music] I almost shot him earlier. Get on the ground. >> Investigators later charged the suspect with multiple serious offenses, including attempting to seriously harm a law enforcement officer. Cases like this reveal how unpredictable routine calls can become and how quickly officers are forced to make critical decisions under pressure. >> If you move, you're going to get tased. DO YOU UNDERSTAND? You know that, right? I should have killed you. >> Okay. >> You're lucky I didn't. You know that, right? You should thank God for that. I would have killed you in your neck. I would have stabbed you in your neck. You're lucky I didn't. Thank God for that, too. >> I see you. >> On September 25th, troopers with Utah Highway Patrol in Utah, USA, began pursuing a vehicle connected to a domestic violence report out of West Wendover, Nevada. >> Uh still speeds. Still moving. Eastbound at 70. >> Just lost a tire. All right, vehicle just lost a tire. Center of the freeway. Dispatcher, can we find out that West Wendover officer is close enough to come give us a trooper a hand? >> Have a local. 501, I'm coming up behind you. >> The suspect vehicle sped down Interstate 80 as troopers carefully followed from a distance. After spike strips were deployed, sparks soon [music] began flying from the damaged tires while smoke slowly built behind the car. >> All right, starting to slow down quite a bit. He's in the middle of the freeway. Heavy smoke, some flames. >> Got another unmarked, looks like, there. >> Medium uniform, 10-3. >> Two uniform, next right. >> No, he's marked. >> I want to get one of those units to stop traffic in case he comes to stop on the freeway. >> As the situation [music] became more dangerous, troopers made the decision to perform a PIT maneuver. Within moments, flames rapidly [music] spread across the vehicle, creating a tense scene as officers ordered the occupants to get out safely. >> Nice. That's it. >> Look, man. >> All right, we got a successful PIT into the barrier. We do have flames visible. Use caution. >> Is the fire department coming? >> Both occupants eventually exited the burning vehicle and were taken [music] into custody while fire crews rushed to the scene. Incidents like this are a powerful reminder of how quickly [music] reckless decisions can spiral into situations no one can fully control. >> All right, driver door still open. One inside, female's out. On the ground, lane one. All right, male driver on the ground, face down. Can't see all of his hands. >> Yeah, we're good. Stand right in front of that Chevy symbol, right there. >> On June 10th, 2022 in Daytona Beach Shores, Florida, USA, officers from the Daytona Beach Shores Department of Public Safety stopped a vehicle during a routine patrol. What first appeared to be a simple conversation about alcohol soon led to a situation with legal consequences for one young passenger. >> Do you have your ID, sir? Your registration and your insurance. Hold on, step out of the car, sir. Do you have like a wrap or a towel or something? Okay. Why do I need to >> put something on? Okay. >> Can I get out? >> I just didn't want to make you stand out here in just a bikini. That's why I'm asking you [ __ ] Okay, go ahead and get out of the car. Yes. Stand right in front of that Chevy symbol right there. And you're how old again? >> As officers spoke with the group, they determined that the 18-year-old passenger was the only person in possession of alcohol. After confirming the circumstances, the officer calmly explained the situation and asked the individual to step out of the vehicle while the necessary procedures were carried out. Although the interaction remained under control, there were moments of tension as the young individual questioned the process, discussed recording the encounter, and expressed frustration about being taken into custody. Even so, the officer stayed professional, [music] explaining each step and what would happen next. >> Take a seat on the bumper. I gave you an opportunity to get dressed. We're going to wait a minute now, okay? Put your butt on the bumper, please. What's your first name? Abigail? Abigail, we're going to go stand over by that GMC. >> The individual was transported for processing and the officer explained how the bond procedure would work. The incident ended without further complications, serving as a reminder that even a decision that may seem minor can carry lasting consequences. Understanding and respecting local laws is often the easiest way to avoid turning an ordinary day into an unforgettable lesson. >> This is why I asked if you wanted the towel. You don't want them recording? I don't know. Maybe it's a document of fun time, I'm not sure. To them it is cuz no one else claimed the beer that you were drinking all by yourself. >> On April 28th, 2021 at approximately 6:53 p.m. on Interstate 185 near LaGrange, Georgia, USA, a state trooper spotted a silver Hyundai Elantra traveling at 108 mph in a 70 mph zone. What began as a routine speeding stop quickly turned into a dangerous pursuit that put everyone on the highway at risk. The trooper activated his emergency lights and siren, but the driver refused to stop and continued driving at more than 100 mph. As the vehicle weaved through traffic, the trooper carefully adjusted his position, waiting for the safest opportunity to bring the pursuit to an end. Near the 43-mile marker, the trooper performed a precision immobilization technique or PIT maneuver, successfully bringing the vehicle to a stop after it left the roadway and overturned. All four occupants exited the vehicle and officers quickly secured the scene before checking on everyone's condition. What could have become far more serious ended without further escalation. >> GET ON THE GROUND. NOW. STAY RIGHT WHERE YOU'RE AT. IS everybody okay? >> Yes, sir. >> Where's the driver? >> I'm right here. >> Hey, stay on the ground. Don't you move. Get on the ground. Over here where I can see you. >> Okay. >> Right there is good. Go ahead and get out. >> Can I get out? Can I get out? >> During the investigation, officers learned that the driver, Nyriese Henley, had a suspended driver's license and an active warrant. A strong odor of marijuana was also detected inside the vehicle. After receiving medical evaluation, Henley was taken into custody and additional evidence was collected as part of the investigation. The case is a reminder that choosing to stop for a traffic stop is almost always the safer decision than risking lives on the road. >> Should have stopped. All right. Say again? So, he's saying she was driving, she's saying [music] he was driving. So, right now they're both getting the charges. I got an ambulance on the way to check them out for the scratches and stuff. >> It just crashed. He crashed. >> On May 14th, 2025 at approximately 11:19 p.m. on Interstate 540 in Fort Smith, Arkansas, USA, an officer spotted a gray Chevrolet Malibu speeding at 88 mph in a 65 mph zone. It looked like a routine traffic stop, but within seconds, the driver made a decision that turned the night into a dangerous pursuit. >> Tag. Can't read it. It just Only thing I can read is May 06 2025. Careful. >> [clears throat] >> What should we stop before the [music] 28 over pass? >> The officer activated his emergency lights and the Malibu briefly slowed before suddenly accelerating away. The chase quickly reached speeds of 124 mph with the driver weaving through traffic and even using the shoulder to pass other vehicles. Every mile made the situation more dangerous for everyone on the road. >> Still going. Driving on the shoulder. He brake checked me. Putting TBI. He was not stopping. 2 Kelly Highway. Kelly Highway exit. He just crashed. He crashed. >> As the pursuit approached the Kelly Highway exit, the driver lost control while attempting to drive through a red light and crashed into a traffic light pole. The vehicle came to a stop allowing officers to safely take the driver, later identified as Daymontre Shawn Wannell, into custody without further resistance. Sometimes a single reckless decision is all it takes to change everything. >> Yeah, I just want to occupy. There's nobody else in the vehicle, right? My legs got to be empty. No. You good? God damn, bro. Dude, my legs got to be emptied, man. >> All right, I'm going to have to put a person on you. >> Fortunately, did you get a return on that 28. I got it, man. I can use mine. I can I can use mine. You good? >> Officers called for medical assistance and later discovered marijuana and an open beer container inside the vehicle. Further investigation revealed that Won Oh was driving with a suspended license and was still required to use an ignition interlock device, which was not installed. A preliminary breath test also indicated alcohol in his system. The case is a reminder that choosing to pull over safely is always a better option than allowing one traffic stop to become a much more serious situation. On June 15th, 2025 at approximately 11:19 a.m. on Interstate 40 near North Little Rock, Arkansas, USA, Arkansas State Police received a request to assist the Jacksonville Police Department with a vehicle pursuit heading westbound. What began as another pursuit on the Interstate would be over in less than a minute. An Arkansas State Police Trooper quickly positioned his patrol vehicle to intercept the pursuit. As the suspect's vehicle came into view, the trooper joined as the lead unit and carefully looked for the safest opportunity to bring the chase to an end without putting other drivers at greater risk. At approximately 11:27 a.m., the trooper successfully performed a tactical vehicle intervention, safely stopping the fleeing vehicle. Officers immediately exited their patrol cars, coordinated with Jacksonville Police, and completed a high-risk arrest without further resistance. The entire incident unfolded in just a matter of minutes. >> There you go. Perfect. Get down. >> They're doing the calls, so we're just giving you support. >> Yep. >> After the suspect was secured, the scene was handed back to the Jacksonville Police Department and the vehicle was towed for further investigation. No officers were injured and no Arkansas State Police vehicles were damaged. The incident serves as another reminder that professional coordination and timely decisions can safely bring even high-speed pursuits to a controlled conclusion.
