God, drop [screaming] the gun. Drop the gun. >> In November 2015, in Columbia Heights, Minnesota, USA, officers responded to a tense standoff involving 45-year-old Michael Kervolet, who was holding what appeared to be a handgun. >> Put the gun down and come out. I want to see your head. >> We need emergency backup. We got a gun. >> Get get on the ground. >> Get on the ground. Yeah. >> Get on the ground. >> Okay. Get on the ground. Get on the ground.

Investigators later confirmed the object was an unloaded airsoft replica that closely resembled a real handgun. [screaming] [snorts] A grand jury later cleared the two officers involved while Kerval's family questioned how the situation was handled. The case shows how uncertainty and split-second decisions can leave difficult questions long after the scene is over. I [ __ ] hit her. How is she? She's okay. All right. Okay. Good. On August 22nd, 2014 in Tuckwell, Washington, USA, officers responded to a freight yard after reports of a man yelling and behaving unusually. There they encountered Linent Terra. Officers tried to move Terra toward a patrol car, but the encounter quickly turned into a physical struggle. Within seconds, a routine call became far more intense. Officers used a taser and a police K9 to bring Terra under control. The dash cam captured the intense encounter, which later became the center of a civil rights lawsuit. Heat. Heat. The charges against Tara were later dismissed and Tquila [music] agreed to a $100,000 settlement in his lawsuit. The case left an important question. How far should officers go when trying to control a rapidly changing situation? On a Wednesday in North Myrtle Beach, South Carolina, USA, police began pursuing three suspects after an armed incident at a bank. The vehicle sped through traffic as officers followed. Police reported seeing an AK-47 pointed from a window, raising the danger to another level. During the pursuit, the suspects allegedly fired toward officers and one patrol vehicle was damaged and forced off the road. Still, police continued coordinating to contain the situation. I' been hit right off the road. I'm fine. My car. >> No injuries were reported and all three suspects were eventually taken into custody. A dangerous pursuit had ended without anyone being hurt. A reminder of how quickly reckless choices can put an entire roadway at risk. >> [laughter] >> North 1050 T50 roll over 1050 roll over. >> On May 29th, 2025, at around 1:24 p.m. in Thomasville, Georgia, USA, a trooper stopped a red car after noticing the driver appeared not to be wearing a seat belt. But just moments after stopping, the car suddenly sped away. down. Jack down. The driver ran several stop signs, crossed into the wrong lane, and weaved through [music] traffic, narrowly avoiding other vehicles and a cyclist. A simple traffic stop was quickly turning into something far [music] more dangerous. [music] >> One, I can't [ __ ] it up. North O'Neal. North O'Neal 1050 1050 roll over. 1050 rollover. Neil MP50 roll over >> on Neil Street. The driver suddenly lost control. The car struck roadside structures, overturned several times, and finally came to rest upside down. The trooper immediately called for emergency assistance and rushed to help. 406 23. Both occupants were taken to the hospital. During a search of the vehicle, officers reported finding [music] THC products and suspected controlled substances. What began with a seat belt violation had turned into a [music] powerful reminder of how one decision can change everything in seconds. On November 9th, 2025, at around 1:47 a.m. in Clayton County, Georgia, USA, a deputy attempted to stop a gray Kia Nero after spotting several traffic violations. Instead of stopping, the driver accelerated away. Time off >> Tower Boulevard and Hourhead Boulevard Delta Charlie 6873 get black. Black Ops radio is now turning right up forward to the road. Speeds are going to be 35 mph. >> The Kia exceeded 100 mph, crossed lane markings, and even raced through a busy gas station. With people and [music] vehicles nearby, every second of the pursuit carried greater risk. Is that for pit? Okay, radio. >> Texico, Upper Riverdale, headed back south on Upper Riverdale to 116. Extremely reckless. >> I'm coming up. Please get that vehicle up there. After the first PIT failed to stop him, deputies tried again. The second maneuver turned the Kia around, allowing officers to box it in. The driver still resisted commands before deputies finally brought him under control. All right. Get on the ground. Get on the ground. Get on the ground. Get on the ground. Get out. Get on the ground. Get on the ground. Police identified the driver as Tanelius Dion Pennington. A search reportedly uncovered marijuana, [music] other controlled substances, and an open alcoholic drink, while a handgun was recovered near [music] the PIT scene. He later faced multiple charges, a dramatic ending to a pursuit that began with a simple traffic violation. >> Shut up. Shut up. [ __ ] On February 23rd, 2024, at around 1:00 a.m. in Little Rock, Arkansas, USA, trooper Jackson Schumate joined North Little Rock police in pursuing a blue Chevrolet Malibu along I30. Alpha Jump Street. Schumate quickly caught up as the Malibu took the Guyer Springs Road exit. With the pursuit still moving fast, he saw an opportunity to bring it to a controlled end. On the exit ramp, Schumate performed a TVI, forcing the Malibu to stop. Officers immediately surrounded the vehicle and ordered the driver out. >> Hey, Jackson. Hang on, boss. It's moving backward. >> Hey, open the door, driver. >> Driver, open the door. Cover me. >> Open the [ __ ] door. Open the door. >> Get out of the car now. Do you have a weapon? Keep your hands up. >> Hands up. Hands up to the ground. Where's your weapon at? Where's the >> Where's your gun at? >> The driver, Jerry Irving, was taken into custody without further incident. A pursuit that could have continued much longer ended within moments, showing how one welltimed decision can quickly bring a dangerous situation under control. On November 4th, 2025, in Keargo, Florida, USA, an FHP trooper joined a pursuit involving a Range Rover speeding south on overseas highway. Charlie this one The driver reportedly exceeded 122 mph using the shoulder and sidewalk while refusing to stop. An initial PIT attempt failed and the pursuit continued toward Founders Park. >> Uh we're slowing down. I know a little bit. Get a nice traffic. I believe this vehicle traffic stop. I passed it. I believe I'm going to try another bit here. We got down here. After striking part of a guard house, the Range Rover returned to the highway with a damaged wheel. Multiple troopers then worked together, finally forcing the vehicle onto the shoulder and bringing the pursuit to an end. The driver resisted briefly before officers brought him under control. He was medically evaluated and later taken to jail. After such a long and dangerous pursuit, the ending carried a simple reminder. At extreme [music] speeds, one reckless choice can put everyone on the road at risk. >> Get his hand. What you got? >> You got a weapon. No more. >> On Monday afternoon in Tro County, Georgia, USA, Deputy Michael Hockett responded to a welfare check after a father reported his son was experiencing a mental health crisis. Nice. >> What are you doing? Whoa. Sheriff's office. Sheriff's office. Sheriff's office. >> No one. I got shots fired down here where I'm at. Jackson Street. >> Sheriff's office. Jackson Street. Hamilton Road. Sheriff's office. Sheriff's office. Get him. You're going now. Put it down. Put it down. Please. Please put it down. No. No. No. No. Dash cam captured Hocket confronting the armed man and shouting, "Drop the gun!" Instead, the man followed him, forcing the deputy to retreat over a fence. A call meant to help had suddenly become dangerous. Shots followed, forcing Hockett to respond. Both were injured, but the deputy remained composed through those critical seconds. Now, >> after a 6-hour standoff, the man surrendered. Both received medical care while the suspect later faced several serious charges. One tense encounter showed just how quickly a routine call can change. >> I'm back in my car. >> Well, I'm not trying to be rude to you, man. Speed limits the same all over the state. On November 25th, 2025, in Panellis County, Florida, USA, a sheriff's deputy stopped a 21-year-old driver after observing her traveling at 91 mph in a 35 mph zone. Moments earlier, the vehicle had also come dangerously close to a pedestrian in a crosswalk, turning an ordinary traffic stop into a serious public safety concern. >> I'm going to patch you down. >> Okay. >> Do you have anything in your pockets? >> No, I don't. >> Okay. All right. All right, turn around and face me. All right. You seem like you've been drinking a little bit. You smell like it. >> Okay. I had one drink. >> Okay. All right. Are you willing to submit to field sobriety? >> As the deputy spoke with the driver, identified as Khloe, he detected the odor of alcohol and began a careful investigation, Kloe admitted she had consumed one drink. Although the initial field sobriety assessment did not immediately indicate clear signs of impairment, the deputy also discovered open containers of wine inside the vehicle. Faced with the full picture, he continued the investigation with patience and professionalism rather than making assumptions. >> Okay. To see if you're if you're impaired >> to the point where you shouldn't be driving. >> Okay. Do you have your license? >> I do. It's not on me, but you guys can. >> Okay. Is this your vehicle? >> This is my mom's car. >> All right. How old are you? >> I'm 21. >> Okay. Stand in front of the bumper real quick. I'm going to grab a form. >> Pedestrian and I'm really really >> Well, you can't see the pedestrian if you're driving like excessive. Do you know what I mean? >> Okay. And I'm sorry. Like so. You're willing to submit to field sobriety? >> Yeah. What happens? Like I just I don't want to get like arrested right now. >> Well, I'm going to ask you to perform some field sobriety exercises. You have the right to say yes or no. >> Based on Florida's super speeder law, which requires an arrest for extreme excessive speeding, the deputy informed Khloe that she was being taken into custody. Throughout the encounter, she became increasingly emotional, repeatedly asking how long she would be detained and what would happen to her vehicle. Even in a stressful moment, the deputy remained calm, explained each step of the process, and ensured the situation stayed under control. >> Speed limit. >> Well, I'm not trying to be rude to you, man. The speed limit is the same all over the state. >> I'm so scared right now. I'm about to my parents. >> So, all right. Listen, turn around for me. I'm going to place you under arrest. >> Turn around. >> I'm going to place you under arrest for reckless driving. >> You're driving way too fast, ma'am. You nearly took out the pedestrian. You're driving 91 and a 35. I I can't let you not go to You have to go to jail for that. There's there's a line and you crossed it. >> Khloe was later cited for dangerous excessive speeding, possessing open alcohol containers in the vehicle, and failing to yield the right of way to a pedestrian. The incident serves as an important reminder that a few seconds of speeding can lead to lasting legal consequences. More importantly, slowing down and making responsible choices behind the wheel can help protect not only your own future, but also the lives of everyone sharing the road. New York. He's freaking out. >> Late at night in Portsouth, Ohio, USA, police and paramedics responded to an injured man who became increasingly aggressive while receiving medical care. Is she calling or anything? I got I got >> Arnold. An EMT said the man tried to bite, punch, and kick medical staff, prompting a request for police assistance. But amid the confusion, another medic grabbed the officer's shoulder, unaware of what had been requested. >> Guys, just stay back. Okay, >> everybody. >> Everybody, just everybody get back over of a sidewalk. Now, >> we've got him. Hold the drone back. >> Get back down. >> You're going to go to jail. >> Want to go to jail? >> Everybody back. >> Do not do him. He's freaking out. The officer quickly moved the medic aside, creating a tense moment captured on video. What looked alarming at first was later reviewed with additional body cam footage. Police Chief Robert Wear said the review did not support claims of improper force and no action was taken against the officer. The encounter ended peacefully, a reminder that a few seconds of video may not always show the full story. >> It's all right. You can't find >> go. On September 15th, 2026 in Alliance, Ohio, USA, officers responded to a car dealership after 67year-old Joseph the 500th Ero allegedly became aggressive and displayed a firearm before leaving in a red truck. Turn the car off. Turn the car off. Put your hands on your roof. Put your hands on the roof. Put your hands on the Officers later found his truck and repeatedly ordered him to turn off the engine and show his hands. Instead, Dero began opening the door and the tension rose instantly. Go. >> Don't. >> Hey, stop. >> Shots fired. Headquarters. Shots fired. >> Take a breath. Take a breath. >> An officer first used a taser. Moments later, police said Deriko raised a firearm toward them, prompting two officers to respond. In seconds, a traffic stop had become a critical encounter. Shots fired. Headquarters. Shots fired. >> No officers were injured. The three officers involved were placed on administrative leave while the Ohio Bureau of Criminal Investigation began reviewing the incident. A sobering reminder of how quickly refusing commands can escalate a tense encounter. We are going to be in the 1,200 block of Johnson. >> Yes or no? >> I'm sorry. I don't know. >> You're not concealing anything in your top or in your bottoms. Correct. >> On September 10th, 2024, at approximately 10 p.m. in Boca Raton, Florida, USA, officers with the Boca Raton Police Department responded to a domestic disturbance involving 19-year-old Elizabeth. What started as an emotional argument soon led to an arrest that would become a difficult life lesson. >> You can't put your hands though. >> You can't put your hands on someone. >> Oh my god. >> Don't worry about that. >> No, I don't. Here's how it works. This is domestic charge. You have to stay in jail if you see a judge in the morning. >> No, please don't. Please don't. >> No, there's no additional. >> After speaking with everyone involved, officers informed Elizabeth that she was being arrested for a domestic battery offense after she admitted to putting her hands on her boyfriend. Visibly overwhelmed, she repeatedly asked if there was any way to avoid going to jail, offering to postpone or remain under house arrest. The officers calmly explained that the decision would have to wait until she appeared before a judge. >> Yes or no? >> I'm sorry. I don't know. >> You're not concealing anything in your top or in your bottoms. Correct. >> Okay. >> I don't know what that means. I'm sorry. I don't car over here. >> Yeah. Okay. >> No way. We're going to walk over here. Okay. Don't >> walk. Please. >> Just walk over. >> If you don't walk, you're going to get extra charges. Keep walking. >> I have your stuff. Don't worry. As officers completed the booking process, Elizabeth struggled to hold back her emotions. She worried about her belongings, admitted there was alcohol in her bag, and repeatedly asked about her boyfriend. Throughout the encounter, the officers remain patient and professional, showing that enforcing the law can also be done with respect and composure. >> Wait, wait, I'm going to get that back. >> It's coming with you. Okay, stop moving around or it's going to fall. >> Relax. Relax. Okay, >> my brother just got out of jail. Bro, anything, anything, anything, anything, anything. I'll go home. Please deal. I'll go on house arrest. Oh, >> that's not how this works. Elizabeth. Okay. >> Thank you. >> Elizabeth was transported to the county jail for processing and later face charges of domestic battery and underage possession of alcohol. The incident serves as a reminder that a few emotional moments can lead to lasting legal consequences and that staying calm during conflict is often the choice that changes everything. >> I'm not sure yet. I haven't talked to him yet. >> Do they know? >> They're going to talk to him. >> Wait, let me alone. No, please. >> No. No. I'm going to be right here. I'm not going to leave you alone. I'm going to put down the window. Okay. in my bag. Will that also get me in trouble? >> What's that? >> I have a bottle in my bag. Will that also get me in trouble? I wasn't going to drive. I was going to sleep over. >> I don't even know. I haven't even looked through your bag. >> I have a bottle. I'm telling you. >> Okay, that's fine. On Tuesday, April 6th, 2021, at approximately 11:22 p.m. on State Road 400 near Interstate 285 in Georgia, USA, Georgia State Patrol troopers joined an active pursuit involving a driver suspected of impairment. Traveling at speeds exceeding 100 mph, the vehicle posed a growing danger to everyone on the highway. He's all over the road radio. We're continuing southbound to far at this time. He's breaking me. We have very light traffic. Uh our speed is >> during the pursuit. Officers reported that objects were being thrown from the vehicle. Troopers carefully coordinated their positions while waiting for a safe opportunity to end the chase without putting innocent drivers at greater risk. Every mile added more uncertainty, but the officers remained focused. Ready? I see some blue lights up. I think it's going to be my troop. Back off a little bit. Okay, that's right. Just a second, bro. We cross 285. We're by the old tower. Looks like you're about to pit >> near Glen Ridge Drive. A successful pit maneuver safely brought the vehicle to a stop. Officers quickly secured the scene, ordered the driver out at gunpoint, and took him into custody without further resistance. The driver was identified as Jansen Cardell Jones, who was also found to have a suspended driver's license and outstanding warrants. Sometimes, one well-timed decision can prevent a far more serious outcome. >> Hit it. Hit it. Extreme 1049. >> A search of the vehicle and recovered items led investigators to additional evidence related to suspected drug activity. Jones was transferred to the Foresight County Jail where he faced multiple charges including felony fleeing, reckless driving, suspected impaired driving, and several traffic violations. The case is another reminder that choosing to run from the law often leads to far more serious consequences than stopping in the first place. >> Why you running? Hang on. >> So what? >> There you go. >> On September 11th, 2026, near I40 in Arkansas, USA, trooper Raphael Garcia stopped a Silver Ford Focus for a faulty brake light. The driver was Anna Marie Seaman, while passenger Matthew Vidittow repeatedly gave a false name. >> No. Okay. Do me a favor. Will both y'all write your first last names and date of birth on this piece of paper? Where are y'all IDs out of? Like where's the last place you had a driver's license? >> Kentucky. >> Kentucky. >> Kentucky. >> Okay. Both of y'all. >> Yeah. >> Okay. Where y'all going? >> My middle name is Thomas. >> Matthew Thomas Samson. >> Matthew Aaron Thomas Samson. >> Okay. >> And you're out of Kentucky? >> Yes, sir. >> Okay. As Garcia tried to confirm the passenger's identity, Seaman suddenly drove away. The chase entered I40 where she weaved through traffic, used the shoulder, and pushed beyond 100 mph. One decision had turned a simple stop into a dangerous pursuit. >> That Kentucky 28, speeds 93, [music] traffic's medium. Certainly get 34 city alcohol sitting there in the round lane now [music] 82 passing on the shoulder still on the shoulder speed 91 Go in. I got traffic. >> TVI TV. >> When the road cleared, Garcia performed a TVI, spinning the Ford into the median. The car became stuck, finally bringing the high-speed chase to an end. Don't buckle your seat belt now. Crawl out the window. [screaming] Crawl out the window. Put your vape down. Crawl out the window. Troopers conducted a high-risk takedown and took both occupants into custody. They were transported to Prairie County Jail, bringing a dramatic reminder that running from a traffic stop can make a minor situation far more serious. >> Walk to your left. Walk to your left. Walk to your left. Walk to your left. Go down to your knees. Go down to your knees. Lay down on the ground. Lay down on the ground. Lay down on the ground. Hands behind your back. I got rid of my I don't care. Shut up. That way right now. Right now. >> On September 10th, 2026 near Brinkley, Arkansas, USA, troopers joined a pursuit of a domestic violent suspect riding a motorcycle westbound on I40. direct soon. It's going to be a motorcycle tag. It's going to be 177 speeds at 60. The rider continued along the shoulder at up to 70 mph without a helmet or eye protection. Troopers stayed close as the pursuit approached the Highway 78 exit. [music] >> Come back to a 203 black Suzuki motorcycle. White male driver, blue shirt, tan khakis, and got on boots. Temple white male, blue shirt, tan khakis, and boots. [music] CFS received. CFS comments added. CFS comments added. Here we go. >> Break down. Break down. While taking the exit, the rider failed to negotiate the S-curve, left the roadway, and crossed a ditch before the motorcycle finally came to rest. One wrong move was enough to end the chase. >> [screaming] >> Troopers quickly moved in and took the suspect into custody without further incident. Attent pursuit was over, leaving a simple reminder. Running only adds more risk to an already serious situation. We're going to be right here at the 221 exit. On October 2nd, 2022, at approximately 12:32 p.m. on Interstate 75 near Lounes County, Georgia, USA, Georgia State Patrol troopers joined a high-speed pursuit after local deputies requested assistance. The driver of a white Toyota Corolla had initially been stopped for traveling 98 mph in a 70 mph zone, but instead of pulling over, he accelerated and fled. Okay. As the pursuit continued, the Corolla exceeded 110 mph, weaving across multiple lanes and narrowly avoiding several other vehicles. Spike strips had already been positioned ahead, but the drivers swerved into the emergency lane at the last second to avoid them. Watching the vehicle repeatedly endanger innocent motorists, troopers knew every passing mile increased the risk for everyone on the highway. After identifying a safer opening in traffic, a state trooper decided to perform a precision immobilization technique or PIT maneuver. The patrol vehicle made controlled contact with the Corolla, causing it to spin across the highway before coming to a stop off the roadway. The driver immediately ran into a nearby wooded area, prompting a coordinated search involving multiple deputies in a police K9. After nearly an hour and a half, the suspect was located hiding on the back porch of a nearby residence and was taken into custody without further incident. Can I share it? Can I shove your hands? Get him. Get him. Get him. Get him. Get him. Put your hands up. Put your hands up. Put your hands up. >> Investigators later recovered a backpack containing packaged marijuana and a firearm along with information linking the suspect, 23-year-old Brandon Rosier, to several outstanding felony warrants from other jurisdictions. He was transported to the Lounes County Jail where he faced multiple charges. While additional investigations continued, the case is a reminder that attempting to outrun the law often leads to even greater legal consequences. While the patience, coordination, and disciplined decisions of law enforcement help bring dangerous situations to a safe conclusion. On January 8th, 2021, at approximately 9:25 p.m. in Millville, Georgia, USA, a Georgia State Patrol trooper attempted to stop a dark-colored minivan after noticing it had no working tail lightss and no rear license plate. Instead of pulling over in the parking lot of the economy in, the driver suddenly accelerated, turning a routine traffic stop into a dangerous pursuit. Village, we're on North Columbia, headed south towards MLK. North Columbia south towards MLK. It's a black minivan of some sort. Black minivan going left on MLK. left on MLK. No 28 displayed. See if I can pedal here. >> We're clear north on MLK. >> The driver later identified as forest trees sped through city streets, repeatedly exceeding speed limits, passing vehicles in unsafe areas and ignoring multiple traffic signals. As the pursuit continued, officers watched the van create growing risks for everyone sharing the road. Believing it was the safest opportunity to end the chase before conditions became even more dangerous, the trooper decided to perform a precision immobilization technique or PIT maneuver. >> Clear making a right southbound on Jefferson Hall right here. But we're coming up to Montgomery now. Jefferson at Montgomery. >> Jefferson at Montgomery. >> Pit rolled over pit. The maneuver successfully brought the van under control, but the vehicle overturned before coming to rest on the roadside. As the trooper approached, he heard a female passenger calling for help while the driver fled into a nearby wooded area. Officers immediately shifted their focus to assisting the passenger, requesting medical personnel and securing the scene before launching a K-9 search for the fleeing suspect. In moments like these, protecting lives always comes before making an arrest. The passenger was transported to a hospital for treatment while officers continued searching for Trice and later obtained a warrant to search the motel room where he had been staying. Investigators recovered suspected illegal substances and drug paraphernalia and further interviews helped confirm Trice's identity. Additional arrest warrants were later obtained as the investigation continued. The case serves as another reminder that attempting to escape often creates greater risks and more serious legal consequences than cooperating from the very beginning. >> Listen to me. Listen to me. >> Keep stay Look at me. Look at me. >> Can you Can you pop the hood for me? I know it's a dumb question, but we got a winch cable. On August 23rd, 2024, at approximately 9:26 p.m. in Washington County, Arkansas, USA, an officer observed two motorcycles and a Dodge Charger accelerating rapidly away from a traffic light on Highway 412. One motorcycle immediately stood out. It had no working headlight, no visible license plate, and appeared to be racing. When the officer activated his emergency lights, the rider chose to speed away instead of stopping. It's a motorcycle. No 287 northbound on Missouri. The motorcycle raced through intersections, ignored traffic lights, passed vehicles on both sides of the roadway, and reached speeds exceeding 100 mph. As additional officers joined the pursuit, the rider turned onto a dead-end county road before reversing direction. With the suspect continuing to endanger everyone nearby, officers knew the situation had to be brought under control before someone else was put at risk. >> An officer carefully positioned his patrol vehicle, slowing down while weaving slightly in an effort to reduce the motorcycle speed. The rider continued forward and eventually struck the front of the patrol vehicle before falling onto the roadway. Officers immediately secured the scene, placed the rider into custody, and requested an ambulance to evaluate his condition. Even after a dangerous pursuit, their first priority remained everyone's safety. >> I got this. >> Just chill out. Everybody just hang >> Just hang on. >> I promise I'm got to play. >> I understand. But you're going to sit here for just a second. >> No, I that's I don't care about >> I don't know. >> I promise. >> He hit me freaking hard. Went up on my hood. After receiving medical evaluation and being released from the hospital with a minor shoulder injury, the rider, identified as Mr. Collins, was transported to the Washington County Detention Center. He later faced multiple charges, including felony fleeing, reckless driving, speeding, driving on a revoked license, operating an unregistered motorcycle without insurance, and several equipment violations. The incident is a reminder that one impulsive decision behind the handlebars can quickly become a series of serious legal consequences. While cooperation with law enforcement is always the safer path. >> I understand I made you mad. I'm sorry. Oh, I understand. I made you mad. >> I don't want to listen. All you're telling >> I'm not excusing nothing. I'm just trying to inter. >> On October 3rd, 2024 in Union, Missouri, USA, Franklin County deputies spotted a stolen Ford F350 linked to a previous pursuit. As the driver became increasingly reckless, deputies moved in. Deputy Officer 50. Tell us where to go. >> Going across 50. >> The driver fled at over 90 mph. crossed into oncoming lanes and kept going even after spike strips damaged a tire. With every mile, the danger only grew. He's heading back into town. >> Headed back into the city of Union City. >> That's clear. I'm on Franklin County deputies in front of me Parkway. We're heading back into town right. You >> okay? >> Yeah, I'm good. >> You're good. Go, go, go, go, go, go, go. >> After several attempts, deputies executed a final pit. The F350 spun sideways and collided with a patrol vehicle, finally bringing the pursuit to a stop. As smoke and flames appeared around the truck, deputies quickly pulled the driver to safety and took him into custody. He later faced multiple serious charges, a dramatic reminder of how far one decision to run can escalate. Ambulance. Ambulance. >> I got it. I got it. >> Hey, extinguisher. >> Object 1938. [screaming] [screaming] >> Keep your feet up. Yo, you guys heard all that. At around 1:49 a.m. on October 13th, 2023 in Palm Beach County, Florida, USA, troopers spotted a reported stolen white Toyota Prius heading north on I95 while a sheriff's helicopter tracked it from above. All right. When officers moved in, the driver accelerated and swerved [music] through traffic at nearly 90 mph. Troopers tried to box the Prius in, but the driver kept pushing forward. Beautiful. After several unsuccessful PAT attempts, a final maneuver connected. The Prius spun out and came to a stop, ending the tense pursuit in seconds. [screaming] Troopers quickly moved in and took the driver into custody. The highway eventually returned to normal, leaving one clear reminder. Every pursuit has an ending, but the choices made along the way determine how serious it becomes. South 27. >> On Sunday, June 19th, 2022, at approximately 9:21 p.m. in Atlanta, Georgia, USA, a Georgia state patrol trooper attempted to stop a white Chevrolet Impala that was driving without a Georgia license plate.
