It's a summer morning in [music] Perry Township, Ohio, where police attempt to pull over a man who's on a lawn mower. 51, we're going to stop [music] him. Oh, he's going around another unit left of center. Do you know what Southway The driver darts [music] around another officer, and the slow-speed chase is on. Copy, do you know if Southway 51, is he continuing north? Yeah, we're at the intersection right now. Yep, he's going eastbound. Eastbound on Southway. Going about 4 mph on lawn mower, Toro. No license plate. The suspect reaches an estimated speed of 4 mph and continues waving police on, but they're not exactly going anywhere. He just waved his hand as to wave me off. We're headed towards the construction zone, no traffic. Eastbound Southway at Delmont. 9 to 10 mph. Copy, he's on Southway at Delmont. 10 mph. He's going through a yard. He's going through two yards northbound. The driver makes a quick exit, cutting through multiple yards, but officers remain on his tail for now. He's continuing through yards. It looks like he's going to come out on Clark. Continuing north through other front yards, 3900 block of Clark. Headed towards Hazelbrook. Okay, dispatch, he's between Hazelbrook and Clark. Straddling the properties. Going west. Hold up. Now, we join one officer as he tries to stop the suspect on foot. I know, he's crazy. Police identified the suspect seen here as 83-year-old William Wackerly, also known as Wild Bill, a man with a lengthy criminal history and no stranger [music] to police. The officer deploys a Taser, but it's no match for William's thick leather jacket. 30, log a Taser deployment. He's deployed a Taser at 22. Continue caution. Continue west, continue west. William continues on, avoiding arrest once again, but seconds later, officers catch back up to him. He's out fully crazy. Sounds like he stopped back behind the store again. William miraculously avoids another Taser deployment after allegedly trying to run over an officer before speeding away once again. 50. Huh? He's got that thick coat on. who he is, he's not going to stop. We'll just file for an assault on him. Jesus. He had a thick jacket on, didn't even penetrate it. I had I lit him up, Bill, lit him up. That guy's out. You okay? Yeah. You see me go for a ride? How about that? I hit him twice with the Taser. It went I don't know. Yeah. Graber come around and kind of jumped on, and then he turned it, went towards Graber, and that's when I Tased him twice. Okay, I'm going to head back to the station. Yeah. Right. That That worried me, too, about the blades. I don't know if they were on or not, I don't know. William manages to lose police, but the next day, officers continue trying to track down their suspect. Are we done? Bill all around? Not yet, but he's supposed to be here shortly. Okay. All right, what is he doing now? Who's Who's he with? Well, we got some property that we got from him yesterday. We wanted to give back to him. Okay. Um I got my friend, Miss Linda, uh picking him up. He was down at the Sheets. So, she I asked her if she would go pick him up and bring him back. So, they should be here like within the next 10 minutes. Okay. Did you guys track down his stupid mower that he was evading yesterday on? >> Yeah, we have his mower. Crazy Bill. All right, he's a nut. I don't know why he does the things he does. >> Well, I can explain it to you why he do it. Because he's old, he's senile, and he's got a whole lot of going on. He's got a whole lot of this, that, and the other going on with his wife stealing his money, moving to Thailand. He He He's just all stressed out. He's just discombobulated. Yeah. That's pretty much what it is. I know that for a fact. Finally, officers catch up with William at a nearby business. All right, Bill. All right, now what the hell Come on. Do you have any pocket knives or anything like that on you? I got a machine gun. You do? Do you have any pocket knives? I got a weapon on me. I I don't have my uh gloves on. Let me check him real quick. Oh Christ, I ain't got nothing. Got a couple of flashlights. Woah, don't run me over. What time did you get released today? I don't mind now. Okay. Come on back here, Bill. That one? Yep, this one right here. 30, you can log him. Yeah, you're going to jail. Why? For yesterday. What do you mean? I got a total of one. Yeah, just stay right there till we're done, okay? So, what you got to arrest for yesterday was for the warrants that you had already before that, and then what you're getting arrested for today is what you did yesterday. Oh, come on. Driving a lawn mower. You heard that right. Officers said they were initially trying to stop William for an active warrant before the 83-year-old took off on his lawn mower. All you had to do was stop. Well, I They charged me $600 the last time I stopped. Well, now you're facing a bunch of charges. They towed my lawn mower. We did, you're right. 51. I didn't have $600 to even mow the grass. 51. I didn't damage the evidence. One in custody. One in custody. What is there a law against driving a lawn mower? Have a seat, buddy. >> I'll put the windows down for you, okay? Good idea. You're getting me arrested for what I did yesterday. Yep. Well, that's the reason we got to go. If I know that, I wouldn't have come home. I probably agree with that. You saw us there, that's why you turned down this way. Huh? I said you saw us there, that's why you guys turned down this way. >> you guys were up to something though. I'd prefer not to deal with you, Bill, to be honest with you. I don't need to Christ, I'm I'm old old old and handicapped and older. Okay. Once at the police station, William has some words of advice for one officer. All right, Bill. Bill, what's up? >> Come on, smile. What's up? Come on. Come on. I can't get my foot off one of the damn seats. You got a kind of smith or midgets back here. What's that? See you. I'm going to check his pockets again once we get in there, too. Sure? the back now. Where's the dog? It's right there. You don't see it? It's invisible. It's not doing me any good if it's invisible. I ain't telling the second they give it to me. You won't get that, Jordan, because he fed him. Bill, come on. Come in here and we'll talk. I can't. I walk so fast. Christ, I'm 85 years old. You're 83. I was born in 1940. That's about good. And then Bunny Straight in their belts, broken man. It's an old one. Bag. There he is. Christ, I just got out of here yesterday. Now you're dropping me back in here. I got a problem. I'm a man of the people. I'm just crazy out of these students. Huh? We saw him I agree. I agree I agree on that. We saw that. Not for long though. Oh, yeah, all night. You can fight me all day. All day. I got a green light. I got a web license on me. There we go. Well, you're starting to run out of things to drive to get away from us. Well, Christ, they told me the lawnmower's not legal. What am I going to get? A horse and buggy? There you go. You're like an Amish man. All right. I'll just tie a horse to my lawnmower. Paint the damn thing flat black. Christ, I got things to do before I die. Is that the whole way up? That car again? Nope, new car. This one's nicer. It's got more room. It does. Officer Watson likes to listen to T-Swift. Are you Are you a Swifty? A what? A Swifty. Taylor Swift. Yeah, I'm a I'm a wild Bill. They only made one of them. They They They got to tell the police they got something to do. And then you you guys had something to do yesterday. You said something about chasing me.

Well Looks like we win in the long run, right? They tricked me into saying I was done. Knocked me out. This isn't my room in this car. I told you it was. Okay, shut the damn All right. Now seated in a patrol car and on his way to jail, William continues chatting with police. Hope you take good care of that jacket. That's my favorite jacket. It's taser free. Where is your jacket? Here. It's here. Oh, they do? Yeah, my hat, too. My I flew for Uncle Sam and I flew a jet, F-100 off of SIP. His instructor wouldn't fly with me cuz I'm nuts. He says, "Wagley, don't you do that again." I said I did it again. And what is that? I took it straight up. Yeah, you slept in the woods all night? Yeah. Why not? I slept in the down in Daytona. I slept on the on the beach down there all night cuz I didn't have any money. My wife wouldn't send me 10 dollars for a coffee. Once she got 8,000 dollars for my social security, she took that with her to Thailand. I told her I said get the door hit her in the ass when she left. Yeah, and he's trying to better his excuse. >> Well, you've lived a wild life, haven't you? Well, I just lived a normal Everybody says what I do and I did it.
