trying to catch up
the out front of me on November 8th 2023
an Arkansas State Trooper was on a
routine Patrol when he saw a motorcycle
lane splitting lane splitting may be
legal in California but not in Arkansas
also not legal in Arkansas going double
the speed limit the trooper quickly
flips on his lights and Sirens
attempting to pull over the suspect the
situation quickly evolves into a Pursuit
one where officers utilize a tactic
never seen before on this channel
trying to catch up Le
[Music]
front spe about
130 130
this second officer is traveling
Northbound on i430 while the pursuing
officer is traveling eastbound on I40
this second officer is likely rushing
through traffic in hopes to continue the
chase if the motorcyclist outpaces the
pursuing officer otherwise if the
suspect heads South the officer will
have to use an unusual tactic to stop
the chase which would be coming from the
opposite side of the highway
[Music]
according to the speed tracker on the
officer's Cruiser the pursuit reaches
speeds of 142 mph one small misstep by
this motorcyclist at these high speeds
and he's done for
[Music]
[Music]
[Music]

[Music]
close GL down
airp 10
I
thinks okay listen he get to that
42 the right shoulder back
[Music]
a third officer joins the pursuit and
jumps onto 40 East just behind the
initial Cruiser the second Cruiser is
still traveling Northbound on i430 and
it looks like he won't be able to catch
up in time to continue the chase on I40
however the suspect is coming up to this
for in the highway he can either
continue East on I40 or he could decide
to take an exit to travel Southbound on
i430 and unknowingly travel towards the
second pursuing officer
[Music]
[Music]
you water
[Music]
145 left anybody name
[Music]
seconde 43 Sou
[Music]
the suspect did take the i430 South exit
and is now heading directly towards the
Second Officer Thinking Fast the officer
drives his Cruiser over the median in an
attempt to make a blockade on the
[Music]
highway on the shoulder right now 4 sou

[Music]
it the track
he wrecked out wrecked out hey get on
the ground on the ground now on the
ground back son
of hey shut the
up hey shut up
hey I don't give a [ __ ] we're cutting

I going back to Father

oh turn St facing this
way I try
hey face the car the ride remain silent
stand your right yes sir bike stolen no
sir I just got it on

real quick
okay I don't have much to say to y'all
but I apologize that was that was stupid
I shouldn't I shouldn't have put y
through that
[Music]
gun Ron take a picture of where this gun
is let me get my camera yes
sir how you run off the road this Lane
and the shoulder that's the only reason
they Pur stop yeah he can either stop or
run off the road using the math scene
here on screen we estimate that the
suspect is traveling roughly 32 to 45
mph when he passes in front of this
Cruiser by employing this novel approach
not only does this tactic bring the
vehicular Chase to an abrupt halt but it
also cleverly prompts the motorcyclist
to swiftly and substantially reduce
their speed to a much safer level far
below 142 mph had you not done what you
did he he'd still be running right now
he's got no criminal history at all room
run just be run no dope no criminal
history you're really just running run
he just run for no reason any dop on no
he's never even been arrested is what it
is the exact same bike that I chased a
couple months ago and he was driving the
same too we doing his like he's getting
on top of it weaving real hard like
trying to shake it just it's being
stupid you know according to a police
report officers discovered he was
carrying a blue pistol with an extra
magazine in his backpack multiple
officers in the area noted that they
witnessed who they believed to be the
same Rider speeding excessively days
prior but were not able to stop him the
report list charges for one felony for
fleeing in a vehicle causing substantial
danger and several misdemeanors
including reckless driving speeding more
than than 15 over the limit which in
this case it was likely more than 65 Mi
over the speed limit improper unsafe
Lane Change improper passing on left
improper passing on right failure to use
turn signal driving vehicle without tags
no proof of insurance and no motorcycle
endorsement his current court case
verdict and sentencing are currently
unknown we found out about this incident
