This gripping bodycam footage features an Albuquerque police officer giving his official statement, detailing the high-speed pursuit of the vehicle carrying the Waffle House attack suspects. The officer breaks down the chase, the failed deployment of a GPS tracker, and the non-compliance that led to a high-risk traffic stop and physical arrests. The officer begins by recounting the initial chase and the attempt to use technology to end it safely. "Car wasn't stopping, came behind him and star chased, deployed, missed," he explains. This detail highlights the real-world challenges of a pursuit, where even advanced tools can fail, forcing officers to continue a dangerous chase. He describes the brief, temporary stop where the suspects' non-compliance was immediately evident: "Car stopped at San Pedro and Zuni. They were not compliant there. I mean, he stopped it, but he wasn't listening to our commands." After this brief pause, the driver, Yokeen Lunford, again fled from the police. The officer then details the chaotic scene after the chase finally ended in a crash. "During the initial... stop, they, again, were not listening," he states. The situation was so precarious that he had to physically remove one of the passengers himself: "Front passenger female had her door open, so I just pulled her... removed her from the car." The statement concludes by re-emphasizing the driver's total refusal to follow orders even after the chase was over: "First one that we were working to get out was a male driver... again, wasn't compliant with verbal commands. He stepped out, still not compliant, wasn't listening to us." This debriefing was recorded on January 21, 2025, and provides crucial context for the subsequent use-of-force against Yokeen Lunford, establishing a clear pattern of defiance and non-compliance that led directly to the physical altercation. This video is a raw, firsthand account of a police pursuit, offering insight into the tactics used and the consistent non-compliance that can turn a traffic stop into a dangerous, hands-on confrontation. #policebodycam #bodycam #policechase #lawenforcement
