On February 22nd, 2025, a routine patrol on Interstate 630 quickly drew legendary Trooper Jacob Byrd's attention to a gold Honda Accord with two unbelted occupants and no liability insurance. The driver refused a lawful traffic stop and sped away instead, while the passenger happened to be a wanted felon riding alongside someone protected by a court order against him. >> [screaming] >> Get on the ground! I've got a black male in a green hoodie. >> hoodie on the Interstate. >> 46 11. >> I'm going to need to see one of those females. I had a >> The driver, Nakendra Gordon, was medically cleared before being booked into the Pulaski County Jail on charges including felony fleeing, reckless driving, and driving on a suspended license. While the passenger, Cameron Carson, also faced charges including fleeing on foot, tampering with physical evidence, possessing drugs while armed, violating a domestic protection order, and drug possession. While authorities also confirmed he had several active warrants from the Little Rock Police Department. Saturday, July 13th, 2024, officers suddenly found themselves following a driver whose decisions became more unpredictable with every passing mile. Instead of stopping, the heavily impaired motorist pressed on despite the vehicle gradually falling apart beneath him. >> All right, he needs help. I'm not sure what they're doing, but the T A is out. Running down the shoulder. All right, we're taking the exit now. And he's slowing down. I think I'm going to end this. Is that a right lane indicator? All right, he's slowing down on the shoulder. Preston. Follow the bike. Okay, we're still heading towards Preston. We just did a number of turns.

Are you okay? >> I'm okay. >> Okay. >> I'm so sorry. >> How much did you drink? >> I don't know. I'm so sorry. Will you get my phone? Will you call my mom? Oh my god. >> Hey, we're not going to worry about that, okay? >> I'm so sorry. I don't know why I did that. >> I'll put him in the back of my car. >> I know. I'm so sorry. I don't know why I did that. Oh my god. Oh my god. I'm so sorry. Oh my god. Oh my god. Oh my god. Why did I do that? >> The pursuit came to an end after the damaged Nissan finally crashed, allowing officers to safely take the driver into custody before emergency personnel evaluated him at the scene. After repeatedly apologizing and admitting he had been drinking, he was transported for medical clearance before being taken to jail to face impaired driving related offenses and additional charges stemming from the pursuit. October 15th, 2023. A driver in a small Toyota chose to ignore police and turned an ordinary traffic encounter into an increasingly [music] reckless escape attempt. Even after multiple opportunities to stop, the driver continued pushing the compact car far beyond what it was ever designed to handle. >> I don't know if y'all I'm out here with 25. Yeah, I'm here today. How many guys got 550 in here with you? >> Get him back. Get him back. Get him out. >> [screaming] [screaming] [screaming] [screaming] [screaming] [screaming] [screaming] >> I can be on here. On the hill of the South Sound on the side with your direction of facing.

It's probably mama's car anyways. Whose vehicle is it? >> to break it down for you guys. Come on. >> Whose vehicle is it? You look >> Please direct him. >> Jakobi what? >> Probably have to go down. >> Okay. >> Once the pursuit was finally over, officers secured the driver without further incident as traffic around the crash scene was redirected while investigators documented the damaged vehicles. The suspect was taken into custody and faced charges related to fleeing, reckless driving, and the traffic violations that escalated the encounter into a lengthy police pursuit. On July the 23rd, 2024, Alexander police requested assistance after a white BMW with its lights turned off refused to stop and accelerated away at extreme speed. Troopers soon discovered the driver was willing to weave through traffic and construction zones at astonishing speeds rather than surrender. >> Put your HANDS PUT YOUR HANDS FIRE TOWN, GET ON THE GROUND [screaming] NOW. DO NOT MOVE. PUT YOUR HANDS BEHIND YOUR BACK. >> DRIVER Thierry Allen was taken into custody at the scene before later being booked on charges including felony fleeing possession of a controlled substance and reckless driving. He also faced citations for speeding driving without a license failing to obey traffic control devices and operating the vehicle with its lights turned off in an apparent attempt to avoid detection with bond set at $30,000. Friday, March 11th, 2022, a speeding white Chevrolet immediately caught the attention of an Arkansas State Trooper after flying through a 40 mph zone at nearly twice the limit. Rather than face a routine traffic stop, the driver accelerated away even as officers learned the pursuit was heading toward an area where school buses were already on the road. >> C46 John Brooke >> 46 20 >> I got one I think he's trying to run. 49 Sorry, 135 southbound. So, I mean, I I can attempt a pit before we get there. >> 135 south at 34. I'm going to have to have this repaired over to turn. >> 39 I'm on 35 now. There's school buses in front of me.

Matthew Dunn was arrested after a brief struggle and transported to the Greene County Jail once the investigation revealed the vehicle displayed stolen fictitious tags. Officers also recovered a switchblade knife and a vape pen containing THC liquid. While Dunn was found to have active warrants with both the Arkansas Department of Corrections and the Craighead County Sheriff's Department. On April 3rd, 2022, a driver roaming through downtown Little Rock decided that stopping for police was apparently less appealing than running city streets. The refusal to pull over quickly turned a routine enforcement attempt into a dangerous pursuit through busy intersections. >> 6:30 West, Chester. Arkansas 182 Little Rock train. 182 zero rev. White Ford Fusion. >> 152 zero the 42 turn north Little Rock. Elizabeth Holmes Ford Expedition. >> South on Broadway. 182 17th and Broadway, the gas station. >> Probably going to grab a station going to be on Broadway. >> Going back north on Broadway now. >> Going back north on Broadway. >> Take it.

I promise you don't, bro. Please just call my sister. >> The driver was taken into custody after officers safely secured the scene, ending the chase before anyone nearby became involved. As the investigation continued, the suspect was transported to jail to face fleeing and the traffic-related offenses connected to the pursuit through downtown Little Rock. Thursday, August 31st, 2023, a motorcycle rider ignored a state police traffic stop and accelerated away in hopes of leaving pursuing units behind. The rider continued weaving through traffic, forcing officers to carefully coordinate their response while waiting for a safe opportunity to bring the pursuit to a close. >> Everything that we're on primary. >> He gave me everything. >> Please slow down on the road. >> He's coming up to the bridge. >> We're westbound on the bridge. Westbound on the bridge. Still at speeds of 30. >> Okay, buddy. 30 ft behind me going in. >> Sound of that motorcycle. I can't see anything. He's digging in his pockets. Smell of marijuana. No traffic out. >> Show me your hands. SHOW ME YOUR HANDS. >> [screaming] >> FACE DOWN. FACE DOWN. FACE DOWN. HANDS BEHIND YOUR BACK. [screaming] >> [screaming] >> THE RIDER was taken into custody shortly after the motorcycle came to a stop, preventing any further attempt to escape. The incident highlighted the coordinated effort between multiple state police units as investigators completed the arrest and processed the case following the pursuit. On April 6th, 2022, Arkansas State Police encountered the infamous blacked-out Dodge Charger Hellcat that had already built an online reputation for repeatedly slipping away from pursuing officers. This latest encounter raised one question that pursuit fans had been asking for months. Would the driver finally run out of luck this time? >> I'll be there in a minute. >> You better PUT YOUR HANDS STRAIGHT UP FOR ME. HANDS STRAIGHT UP. You better get on your face right here on this concrete. Hurry up. You lay right there. Hands straight on your back. >> Good people 20 years old. >> You can't park like that, you want to get run over, buddy. >> 10-4 10-30 >> The chase ultimately answered the mystery surrounding the notorious Charger as officers brought the incident to a close after another dramatic pursuit. The driver was taken into custody following the encounter, ending the run of a vehicle that had become one of the most recognizable repeat escape stories among police pursuit viewers. Saturday, June 22nd, 2024. What began as a routine late-night traffic stop quickly changed after Trooper Carter Lazenby noticed signs that suggested there could be more inside a white Chrysler 300 than expired tags. When the driver was asked to step out so the vehicle could be searched, he chose to speed away instead of cooperating. >> All right, good evening. Trooper Lazenby, Arkansas State Police. The reason I pulled you over one, you're doing 68 in a 60, all right? >> I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I I really saw you behind me and I was wasn't trying to go fast at all. >> No, you're doing 68 before you got to Dale, okay? >> Yeah. >> Um and then when I turned around I guess I slowed down. But anyway, other than that, your drive-out tag is unreadable, man. I it's just >> I'm sorry. I'm I actually just lost my job not too long ago and I've really been trying to get get that back.

Keep walking back. You have a ditch. >> Jayden Culp was taken into custody after being evaluated by emergency medical personnel and transported to the Mississippi County Sheriff's Department where he was charged in connection with the pursuit. He later agreed to provide a urine sample for analysis after being advised of his rights and the investigation continued following his booking. Saturday, August 26th, 2023 an Arkansas State Police traffic stop turned into a pursuit after a driver apparently decided the vehicle behind him was not really a patrol car. That mistaken assumption quickly led to a chase the driver almost certainly wished he had avoided. >> Roll this window down. >> Sorry, this window is fine up here. >> I can't see through your window and you got someone in the backseat. Roll it down. >> Sorry, this window up here is fine. >> Roll your window down. >> open my door, sir? >> Open your door or roll the window down, one of the two.

His remark that he did not think the vehicle belonged to a police officer became the unexpected explanation for a decision that only added to his legal troubles. On July 4th, 2025, Springdale police were already pursuing a silver Nissan Altima believed to be involved in street racing when Arkansas State Police joined the response. Despite heavy holiday traffic and worsening risks to the public, the driver continued fleeing with little regard for the vehicles around him. >> 10-4 >> Emerson Castellano Diaz was taken into custody without further incident after officers secured the scene while investigators also recovered a firearm during a search of the vehicle. Springdale police charged him with offenses including felony fleeing, street racing, tampering with evidence, reckless driving, wrong resisting arrest, forgery, and several additional traffic and alcohol-related violations. Friday, August 25th, 2023. An 18-year-old motorcyclist turned a police stop into a much bigger problem by refusing to pull over. The situation became even more serious after officers received information that the rider might also be carrying a weapon. >> I just had 47 with a chrome revolver. I'm going back into the uh movie theater. Cut across the mall parking lot. That's one of the little arms. >> 41 11. >> I'm going back I'm going back to the mall.

Friday, November 7th, 2025, an Arkansas State Trooper spotted a blue Dodge Charger that had already earned attention after reportedly fleeing from the Alexander Police Department just days earlier. An attempt to stop the car over its expired registration quickly turned into another escape attempt as the driver accelerated away through city streets. >> The final stop is going to be the Sonic on Colonel Glenn. >> Two goals of 13. >> 856 standby, he may be coming back out of Colonel Glenn. >> 535 32 33 37 >> Put your hands up right here.

He was charged with felony fleeing, driving on a suspended license, no liability insurance, failing to register the vehicle, defective tires, and not wearing a seat belt, while Alexander Police also advised they were seeking additional warrants based on his statements. On December 6th, 2023, officers from multiple agencies joined forces after a black Dodge Charger refused to stop and immediately began pulling away at extraordinary speed. The driver continued gambling on horsepower as the pursuit stretched across several highways and communities before other units prepared to intervene. >> For real?

Randleston was booked to await his first court appearance on charges including felony fleeing and aggravated assault while Thompson was safely removed from the vehicle as investigators completed the case. Saturday, August 26th, 2023, a gray Dodge Charger caught the attention of an Arkansas State Trooper after racing down Interstate 40 well above the posted speed limit. Instead of accepting a speeding citation, the driver turned off the vehicle's lights and attempted to disappear into the night. >> SHOW ME YOUR HANDS. SHOW ME YOUR HANDS. SHOW ME YOUR HANDS.

On November 12th, 2024, a traffic stop involving a rental Jeep Grand Cherokee became increasingly suspicious when the driver refused to cooperate and appeared to be concealing his identity. Moments after troopers prepared to remove him from the vehicle, he accelerated away through an active construction zone instead. >> Will you roll down your window a little bit? Will you make sure the car Will you make sure the car's in park and step out for me, please? Will you make sure the car's in park and step out for me, please?
