On July 5th, 2025, just before 1:00 a.m., Garland County deputies were chasing a stolen blue BMW SUV. They called in Arkansas State Police for backup, and it didn't take long for troopers to catch up. The suspect wasn't slowing down, and things were about to get dangerous. We go. We go. We go. We go. We go. I don't have reference now. We're pass still in spring on base. >> Third thing is as soon as you clear those houses, that's going to be your only shot before it turns to dirt. 7700 block. 7700 block. As the pursuit entered Lonsdale, the trooper took over the lead position. The suspect drove aggressively, swerving, breaking hard, and cutting across the road, shutting down every single pit attempt. And with narrow road, tight turns, an uneven terrain, the kind you rarely see in police chases, things weren't exactly going in the troopers favor. But that didn't stop him from trying again. Here [Music] you can boxing in. Heat. Heat. Heat. [Music] Troopers. Troopers wreck. I got both of them here. I need his wife that started now. >> The suspect identified as Shawn O'Brien didn't get far. After the final pit sent the BMW rolling into a ditch, deputies moved in and took him into custody. Both cars wrecked and one suspect arrested and one trooper proving that no matter the terrain, you don't outrun Arkansas's state police. O'Bryant now faces a stack of charges, including theft, fleeing, reckless driving, and more. This chase may have started on his terms, but it ended hard. On March 16th, 2025, Florida Highway Patrol trooper Mulvi was on routine patrol along State Road 826 when a black Ford Mustang with white stripes came flying by, driving recklessly and weaving through traffic. Once lights and sirens were activated, the driver made his decision clear. He wasn't stopping. Turn yourself. order. Bang. [Music] [Music] The suspect, later identified as Alejandro Garcia Estrada, pushed the Mustang past 120 mph. Despite heavy traffic, he was all over the road. But Trooper Mulvy stayed locked in, holding tight on his tail, refusing to back down. going. I feel going down. [Music] 1842. We just crashed out. >> When you're driving like this, there's only one way it ends. The moment Estrada ran a red light, he caused a collision and flipped his Mustang onto its roof. He was pulled from the wreck and arrested after a taser was deployed to stop his resistance. Luckily, no one in the vehicle he hit was injured. After medical clearance, Estrada was booked into jail, leaving behind a wrecked Mustang, a failed bribe, and a long list of charges. On March 11th, 2023, just after 3:00 a.m., a trooper spotted two cars turning Atlanta's I20 into a racetrack. So, a Dodge Charger and a Tesla Model 3 weaving through traffic at over 140 mph. They weren't just speeding, they were side by side, slowing down, then launching forward again like they were on a drag strip. Then came the radar reading 167 mph. And just like that, the chase was on. 795 Atlanta 1080 with a great Tesla RE71. Ry 7101 might be going connector northbound. [Music] We all know Teslas are some of the fastest SUVs on the road, but all of that means It's nothing when a Georgia state trooper is behind you. 50. Hold on. [Music] [Music] Get out. Get on. Get on the ground. >> Out of the car. >> Stay right there. Don't move. Do not move. Do you understand? >> The driver, identified as Joseph Smith, was pulled from the vehicle and arrested at gunpoint. The smell of alcohol was undeniable. Smith agreed to a blood test and was taken to Grady Hospital for medical clearance where concerns of spinal injury delayed immediate booking. Warrants were later filed and by the time he was released from the hospital, the charges were already waiting. A street race turned police pursuit and for Joseph Smith it ended with wrecked metal, flashing lights, and a long road ahead. On May 11th, 2025, a bolo was issued for a black Mitsubishi Eclipse carjacked in Fort Meyers by two armed blonde females. One of them was reportedly tall, tattooed, and carrying what looked like a 38 revolver.

That's when the hunt began. very high unit 31 southbound 29 moment swimming over the exit or keep going. The suspects hit speeds of 130 mph, weaving through traffic, tailgating, blowing shoulders, and nearly causing multiple crashes. It was reckless and dangerous from every angle. Further down the road, more troopers were waiting with stop sticks, ready to deploy them. Okay, on all the units by somebody [Music] 48 vehicle southbound denied. Take this. Yeah. Deputies deployed stopsticks and the driver swerved hard to avoid them, but lost control. The Mitsubishi slammed into the cable barrier and spun out, finally coming to rest on the shoulder of I75. Both women, Stacy Leah and Miranda Prior, were taken into custody without further resistance and airlifted to the hospital for evaluation. But the story didn't end there. A deputy had seen something fly out the window midchase. A loaded.32 Smith and Wesson revolver recovered near mile marker 90. What started as an armed carjacking ended with a crash, a tossed firearm, and two suspects in handcuffs. On March 7th, 2024, Georgia State Patrol's crime suppression unit was assisting Atlanta police in tracking down a white Ford Fusion involved in a vehicle theft with help from Atlanta PD's autocrimes unit and their aviation team Phoenix. The suspect vehicle was located in a parking lot. When officers moved in to stop it, the driver failed to stop, initiating a pursuit. for uh east man on NLK 795 is trying to stop a fight for a fusion. Stand by for a second.

Trooper Tierney deployed his taser and finally brought Jackson into custody. Jackson now faces multiple charges, including felony fleeing, obstruction, reckless driving, and driving on a suspended license. He also had outstanding warrants for criminal damage. On November 10th, 2022, Covington police and the Newton County Sheriff's Office were searching for a missing person near Stevenson Road. But what they found instead was something else entirely. A man driving a Honda Accord suddenly backed away from the crime scene area and took off right as officers moved in. That driver was later identified as Jesse Hardman. And what followed was a high-speed chase with a whole lot more at stake than just traffic violations. [Music] Ventur [Music] Piggy Bridge Road. Bened picking bridge road. [Music] First, let's clear something up. If you're wondering about the voice in the background, that was a GPS speaking German. Whether the officer was German or just preferred the language, we don't know. What we do know is this. The suspect veered off road trying to escape through open terrain, but deputies were already closing in from every direction. They were trying to end this the right way. But if that didn't work, we all know what comes next. [Music] Did you see it? Hits it. [Music] We'll drink 10. We're getting another one. [Music] >> Hardan was taken into custody, but refused to say a word. A search of the car revealed what troopers feared. multiple loaded guns, some with extended mags, stolen plates, no insurance, and a suspended license. Hardman was a convicted felon with active warrants and a long criminal history, including burglary, assault, and fleeing. He was sentenced to 40 years, 13 of them to be served behind bars. What started as a missing person investigation ended with a felon, a car full of guns, and a chase that nearly turned deadly. On December 21st, 2024, what started as a routine response to a domestic disturbance turned into pure chaos. Around 4:15 p.m., a Monroe County sergeant radioed in with just two words, "Send help!" Moments later, he stole my patrol vehicle. The suspect, identified as Armando Lopez, had just stolen a fully marked sheriff's unit and fled from police. [Music] He just stole my patrol car. He stole my patrol car. Central. [Music] [Music] Just after stealing a fully marked patrol car, Lopez wasn't done. He stole a red Kia SUV. At first, officers didn't realize he had switched vehicles, but once they put the pieces together, the hunt was back on. Troopers quickly tracked him down and set up stopsticks, waiting for the stolen SUV to make its approach. I'm traveling 100 miles hour. He's a mile and a half ahead of me. >> He's about 100 miles an hour. >> Signal force. Signal four. Signal four. All [Music] right. >> Get it open. >> Open. Come on. Push the side. >> All right. Push the side. Watch. Crossfire. >> I'm I'm I'm going I'm taking mine out. >> Body right there. >> Body. >> I got you. I got >> Watch it. Watch. >> Sheriff's office. Come out with your hands up. Can you hear me? >> Get up. Get up on your side. >> After being removed from the wreck, Lopez was handcuffed, medically cleared, and taken into custody, though not without resisting again while being loaded into the patrol car. Turns out Lopez was driving with a suspended license from a previous DUI and had multiple violations across state lines. From stealing a patrol car to a 100 plus mileph pursuit to a brutal crash, it all ended with shattered glass, felony charges, and a one-way ride to the Key West Jail. If you're going to outrun the cops, make sure you've got a valid license and maybe some insurance. On June 25th, 2025, St. Francis County deputies were chasing a brown Chevy down state highway 261. The pursuit quickly spilled onto Interstate 40 where speeds hit triple digits. That's when trooper arrived, took over as lead unit, and this chase officially kicked into high gear. >> The deputy did [Music] I'm on it. 1037. [Music] Head direct. [Music] >> TBI. TBI. He went into the gate bears. [Music] >> He's 105. [Music] The trooper lined up and executed a pit at 100 mph, sending the vehicle slamming into the guardrail. The driver was identified as Jimmy Lee Manasco, and his record spoke for itself. An expired license, no insurance, and clear signs of impairment. He refused sobriety testing, declined a urine sample, and wouldn't even sign the statement of rights. Instead of a getaway, he earned seven charges, including fleeing, DWI, reckless driving, and speeding over 100 mph. whatever he was running from, it just got a lot worse. It was June 5th, 2025 in Franklin County, Ohio, when a deputies spotted a stolen Honda Civic just after noon at a busy intersection. They waited for the light to turn green. And when it did, the Civic made a slow left turn, but didn't stop when the lights came on, and that's when the pursuit began. Heat. Heat. Okay. The driver weaved through traffic, ran red lights, and even drove into oncoming lanes, refusing to pull over. The chase quickly got out of control, and it wasn't looking good. With every reckless move, the number of people put in danger kept rising. Happy birthday. In a chase like this, there's only one thing you hope doesn't happen. But what troopers were hoping to avoid happened exactly the opposite. 22 out. Deputies and officers rushed in, ordering the occupants to crawl out of the back window. One was released on scene, the other taken into custody on a felony warrant. The stolen car's driver was hospitalized for evaluation. One innocent driver hit in the crash suffered a broken toe. As for the Civic, it was stolen, crashed, and now part of a case that ended in shattered glass and handcuffs.
