On October 29, 2023, Police Officers from The Ohio State University attempted a traffic stop on a pickup truck that was allegedly speeding and driving reckless through a parking lot. As Officer Cruz was exiting his vehicle to approach the driver, the truck sped off, crashing into the back of a police vehicle. A short pursuit ended with a massive traffic collision, which sent 3 people (including a police officer) to the hospital. The 19-year-old driver then fled on foot, but was quickly apprehended. As he was being placed into the back of the police vehicle, he managed to break free from officers and run for it. Because he was handcuffed, his attempted escape didn't last long. He was quickly tackled by the officers. The craziness continued at the police station, when the driver urinated in one of the interview rooms. Ultimately, he was charged with 3 very serious felonies and misdemeanor Operating a Vehicle Impaired. His case is still open and all suspects are presumed to be innocent until proven guilty in a court of law.
