On July 4th, 2025, along Farm Zoo, officers pulled over a car that had been clocked at nearly double the speed limit. Emergency lights flashed, but the driver didn't stop right away. A decision that would only raise more questions once the vehicle finally came to a halt. >> The reason why I'm stopping is you're speeding 54 in a 30 mph zone down Farm Zoo. And then I activated my lights and you kept going. Why? >> Oh, I'm sorry. I didn't mean to. I didn't notice your lights were on.

You could take a white shirt. >> It's just I just need to identify you cuz you don't have a seat belt on. You don't You have open. That's it. >> Okay.

During the arrest, the driver even tried holding on to her boyfriend in a lastditch act of defiance. >> You might be confused. Um, just a traffic stop. She didn't stop right away, so obviously we were concerned with her trying to flee from us. >> How was the So, she's currently not under arrest.

My name is Nick. >> Nick Aspie. >> I'm going to be honest. >> Nick Aspie. >> It seems like you are under the influence of something. >> The woman identified as Sophia became defensive when told she was under investigation for DUI. She denied driving at all, claiming a friend had dropped her off despite officers witnessing her behind the wheel. >> I am literally drinking and I'm not going to drive. Not going to drive. >> But you were already driving. Problem is, >> I was not. No, I wasn't. No, I was not. >> I mean, we stopped you in the middle of the road. >> No, you didn't. No, you did not. >> Look at the cars. >> You No, you did not. >> Where do you think you are right now? >> I am in GF Gate. >> No, you're miles from Golf Gate. You did not stop me in front of golf gate. You >> did not. You were correct. >> You did not stop me in front of golf gate. >> Sophia, I am investigating a DUI. Sorry. >> And I would like if you would participate in a couple couple standard field sobriety exercises to determine if you'll be able to drive home. >> I am not going to drive home. >> Okay. Well, in that case, we could at least pull your car over. But if you would be willing to participate in those exercises, >> do you want me to call Triple A? Like I have to pee. I know, but right now you're not going to be able to pee. I'm sorry. Please. >> When asked to perform field sobriety tests, she refused multiple times. Instead, she argued, complained, and accused officers. >> Would you be willing to participate in exercises? >> No. >> And why is that? >> Because, >> well, if you don't participate in those exercises, I have to make my determination on a driving. >> Those guys are reckless driving. You're not going to arrest them. >> Well, I'm dealing with you right now, unfortunately. >> Really? >> Yes. >> Really? Yes, ma'am. >> Me instead of those guys reckless driving. You're going to deal with me. >> So, hold on. If you do not participate in some of those exercises, then I have to make my determination on a DUI charge based off of what I've seen so far. And it seems like there's quite a few signs that you're under the influence. >> I am under the influence, but I did not drive. Swear to God. >> Do you remember that you had the car in drive and then I had to put it in park for you? >> I was not. No, I do not. >> Well, how did your car get here then? My friend drove it over here for me. >> That's not what happened. >> He drove it over here for me. >> Physically saw you driving. >> I was not driving. I was not driving. >> We saw you driving. >> I was not driving. I wasn't. I swear. I swear. >> Okay. Well, I'll ask you one more time. Would you be willing to participate in those exercises? >> No, I was not driving. >> Even if there's just one to check your eyes. >> I was not driving. Eventually, she reluctantly agreed to participate, but treated the situation like a joke. She flirted with the officers and made sarcastic comments. There's nowhere to >> That's not fair. That's not fair. That is not fair. That is not fair. You're asking me take a proo without taking piss. >> Taking a what? >> Taking a test without taking a piss. >> You're going to participate in an exercise. >> Exactly. >> But this exercise, you only have to stand there. You were asking Babe. You were asking me Babe. Babe, you were asking me to take a test without a test. >> That doesn't make much sense. >> You are asking me to take a test without a test. >> I'm I'm asking if you're willing to participate in an exercise. >> You want me to participate? You want me to participate in test? >> Do you want if you're willing to? Yes. >> Hey, and do you want me to do what you want me to do or do you want me to do what I want to do? >> You can do whatever you want. >> I'll bust out. I'll bust out. But I'll do what you want to do, too. >> If you're willing to participate in >> I Hey, I will I will participate. >> Okay. It seems like that sidewalk is nice and flat for us. >> Would you be willing to walk over there? That one across the street? We just got to watch this car to our left. >> Hey, watch the car from the left. >> All right, you're good to go. >> Watch my car. >> All right, Dave, do you mind uh turning off the front lights, >> Dave? Dave, >> here. We're going to come on over here, Sophia. >> Dave, we're going to make out. We're going to turn off the lights here. >> Hey, Dave, we're going to make out here. >> Okay, >> we're going to make out here. >> No, we are not. Here we >> turn off turn lights. We're going to make out. >> Wait, wait. Stay right there for >> Oh. >> Sophia admitted openly that she was drunk, but continued to resist the field tests, making dramatic statements and refusing to follow instructions. >> Sorry. >> That's all right. >> Knee reaction. >> All right. So, this first exercise >> in this suit, brother. >> This first exercise is going to test your eyes. Okay. But before >> Dude, why are you drunk? Ask me. I You know I'm drunk. >> We have to. >> Why are you doing this to me? Because I want to give you. >> You know, you know I'm drunk.

I can't. >> Here, I'll give you this to hold on in the meantime. >> Give me a citation. >> No, >> bro. >> That's not a citation. It's something, >> bro. >> So, you don't have to touch. >> Is this your phone number? Is this your phone number? >> Nope. It's blank. >> Hey, put his phone number on this. >> Please. Please, bro. >> I think he's got someone. >> Please put your phone number on. >> Sophia, I know that you're drunk. You know that you're drunk. >> I am drunk. If you are willing to participate in a few exercises, I would like to do those. >> Don't you don't have to do this. >> If you don't want to, I can't make you. >> You don't have to do this. >> I have to try to do the exercises with you. >> I am drunk. >> I'm only asking your consent to do this. >> I am drunk. I will piss on the street, bro. >> She continued mocking the process. The officers remained patient, but her behavior only confirmed their suspicions. >> You can talk to the camera if you want, but you got to stay right there. >> You talk to the camera. You hold this. Hey, you hold this. I will talk to the camera. >> No. No. Hold on. >> I will I will talk to the camera. >> Hold on. Hold on. >> I will talk to the camera. Hello. >> Why don't you try putting your feet together for me and let's put your hands down your side. >> You're the ones taking me home, right? You're taking me home, right?

Yes. Do you want to come back here and stand with your feet together? >> No, I don't. I actually want to stand back here with my feet. >> Finally, officers informed her the reason for her arrest. Sophia, however, continued to beg and argue, not fully grasping the seriousness of her situation. >> Take one more hit. >> I took it. There you go. >> No, you didn't. >> I did. The body cam took it. Remember? >> Wait. >> Yes, ma'am. I have to pee you guys. >> But first is easier or however you want to. I know this is not good news, Sophia, but you are going to jail tonight for DUI. Okay.

How you >> bro you, bro? Um, I'm here with Sophia and we are downtown. Give it to me. >> And she's going to be going to jail for Give it to me. Give it to me. >> She's wondering if you can come pick up her car for her. >> Oh my god. Give it to me. >> No. I mean, she's going to jail. I mean, we can park the car here, but we can't leave the keys with it cuz we can't sit here and watch it. Sophia, can Kayla come grab the keys and take your Jeep? >> Yes. >> Okay. Bang on the door. >> Sophia Gabriel Ross was officially charged with DUI. In the next part, you confront how a single act of defiance spirals into chaos, pulling a family into a confrontation with the law none of them expected. >> There's that. And then we'll cut here and here. >> Come here. >> On October 15th, 2024, police responded to a domestic disturbance and found a man outside the home. Suddenly, screams were heard from the backyard. So, officers rushed to check. While talking, he grew increasingly agitated and denied any wrongdoing. >> You're not ready to go. Stop. Darn it. Get over here. Help. >> Help. Girl screaming in the backyard. >> There's nobody screaming. It was me. Just be entertained for now. Palister, >> help. Help. >> Help me. Help me. There ain't nobody back there. >> There ain't nobody back there, dude. >> Freaking out. >> What are you guys doing to me? What the >> Ain't nobody back there. Are you guys >> When confronted, the man spat on an officer's face, which instantly escalated the situation. When he was told he was going to jail, he denied any wrongdoing and questioned officers. >> Drunk this. >> I ain't been drinking my face. >> What are you doing? >> Now you can go to jail >> for what? >> You spit my face. >> Absolutely dude. >> Your can hop back up. We'll go to the car. Get up. >> Ow. Ow. What the Dude, I did nothing to you. >> You called me a drunk. Yeah, >> I ain't been drinking. >> The struggle intensified when he fought against restraint, accusing officers. Despite his protest, officers secured him, but he continued to resist violently. >> I got nothing on me. >> We're going to find out. Help! Help! Help! Help! Help! Help! >> Knock it off. >> You just my face off, dude. I did nothing. >> You're pulling away from us. >> No, I didn't. You're >> still pulling, dude. Stop. >> Why' you stupid? >> Y'all been waiting to beat the out of me. >> Stop. >> Dude, let me up. >> Paramedics are called when the man sustains minor injuries. Meanwhile, officers discovered his girlfriend trying to avoid arrest. >> I'll pull up to the house here. >> Help, Aaron. >> Help. Help. Call my mom. Call my mom. >> Call Amos more. >> Huh? I don't know. He's just bleeding. >> All right. 76. I had a code to medic for him. Male's got some cuts to the face. Watch that girl. >> Uh, is there Oh, there's another girl. >> Yeah, big girlfriend. >> Oh, okay. >> Did you hear her screaming earlier? And as far as you know, is a girlfriend here still. >> I never saw her leave. >> Okay. But before we got here though, you could hear a woman screaming. >> Okay. So, when we're walking up, it sound like we heard a woman screaming, but then she's >> since you guys were on. Sure. >> Little something to do with losing. >> Oh, yeah. Plenty of that. Do you know the girlfriend's name? >> Hannah. >> Hannah. Okay. >> She's supposed to go to jail in two days. Oh, okay. So maybe that's why she took off before we before we got here. >> She may have gone over the back then. >> Okay, sure. Well, they found her after. >> The man continued his erratic behavior, accusing officers of harassment. Officers remained firm while preparing to transport him. >> Thank you. You want to babysit with him while I fill this down? >> You all right? Back there seizure. >> Yeah, with a seizure. >> What kind of seizure do you have? >> Alcoholism. >> Alcoholism. >> Can you bash my face off the tree? That gives you seizures. >> Yeah, just love [ __ ] harassing you. >> We didn't just come here because we wanted to. >> I didn't spit in nobody's face. >> You did? >> I did not. The gun's doing I did not talk to you. >> Get the out of my house. >> No, we're done in there. >> Lord, what'd you get? You fine. What'd you find? >> Your girlfriend. You know her name. >> I have no reason to tell you her name. >> Oh, >> that's your job. Oh, >> I'm not going to do your job for you, you stupid. >> Oh, I got you. >> All right, hop out. I'll put you on this cot. >> You going to help me out? >> No, I'll help you once you get out here. >> All right, I bet you will. You going to beat me up again? >> No, nobody beat you up. >> Nobody spit on you neither. >> You did? Hop on out. >> I did. >> Yeah. >> Show me the footage. >> Okay, come on up. You want to go to the hospital? >> I'm going to have to cuz I probably need to stick. >> All right, let's do it then. Come on. >> As I put your knee in my >> Well, wait. waiting for then. Let's go right over here. >> I don't need your help on my >> You just ask for help. >> I don't need your help. >> You are going to have my help. >> Look, you got to throw me around again some more. >> Get your face out of my face. >> Ow. What the bro? Ow. Ow. What the >> sit down? You're saying nothing. You guys are beating me the off straps or what? >> What the? >> There's that. And then we'll cut here. L's come. >> What the What the What? Get yourself out of my throat. Put >> your hands over here. >> Get your >> As they tried to place him in restraints, he screamed, thrashed, and threatened officers. At one point, he claimed to have seizures due to alcoholism. His mother arrived and also began shouting at the police. You >> My wrists are bleeding cuz you don't want to beat on. Y'all are pathetic as a unit. >> All right. This hand is I will as soon as you get your thumb out of my neck. >> Now stop screaming in my face. >> The disarm. What the [screaming] >> I can't be here. >> What the terrible?

I can't brea anything. I'm sweaty. >> The man threatened to kill officers and continued to fight while strapped down. Despite his claims of injuries, officers noted he was still resisting and spitting. >> Back up. Back up. >> Get off my mom. You will you like that? >> Yeah. What the >> I think that's going to be a refusal. I just need you guys to relax, bud. Relax. You're going to the hospital. >> My hair. >> Stop jumping on my hair. Are you done? >> Yes. I'm done. Pull my mask off, please. >> Relax. >> When you're ready. >> That's all I wanted, bro. >> That's fine. >> That's all I am. >> Except you're hurting. >> You're hurt me, dude.

Yeah. Actually, I'm going to be bleeding in a minute. >> Better. >> Yes. >> I haven't seen the back of my car. >> Please. >> Take a picture of this before I clean it up. >> Meanwhile, the girlfriend said something against him. Officers documented the injuries and her statement supported a domestic battery charge. Don't cut up on each other picture before I clean it up. Oh, gross. >> All right. You You got charges from or on Tanner from the girlfriend or what? >> She's saying that he snatched the glasses off her face and broke them and never made contact with her. But she's got her neck and side hurts on her hand. >> I'll take take a picture of it, but you can go for domestic vet. All right. You what? >> You don't want to hurt me? >> Well, she I'm I'm got my thumb on his pressure point there under his jaw and she grabs my arm and he's trying to bite me and spit at me. >> Mike, go tell me what medic number. >> The first one here. >> Medic 16, the first responding one. 876 I'm calling medic 16 to >> the man is charged with three counts of aggravated battery on a police officer resisting a peace officer and domestic battery. His mother Tammy faces obstruction charges but her case is later dropped. The man pleads guilty to resisting, spends 4 days in jail, receives a 12-month conditional discharge, 100 hours of community service, and must pay $270 in fines and fees. Imagine our next suspect tries to turn a routine traffic stop into a high-speed chase, testing the limits of the law and the patience of the officers. >> On March 14th, 2025 on a street in Neapville, Illinois, a routine traffic stop quickly escalated when the officer informed the driver that his license plates were suspended. When asked to step out of the vehicle, the driver hesitated and resisted. >> Say well, >> I'm Officer Spark with Neighborville. The reason I'm pulling you over is cuz your plates are suspended. >> Suspended? >> Suspended, brother. >> For real? >> Yeah, dude. I ain't looking to make a big deal out of that. That's just the reason we're making contact with you. >> Okay. >> Um, do you have a driver's license? >> Yes. Insurance? >> Yeah. >> All right, brother. >> Um, I ain't know my place is suspended. >> No worries, man. If you haven't missed out for it, we won't give you a ticket for it right now. >> Okay. >> All right, man. >> Are you still living? >> Uh, yeah. >> Yeah. >> Yeah. >> Okay. suspended. >> Yeah. >> Are you serious? Uh she she saying that your place is suspended. >> He's saying the place are suspended. >> We ain't looking to give you a ticket for it, boss. Um do me a favor. Let's talk about this. Will you hop out with my partner over there? We can talk about it out here. >> Um I have to hop out. >> Yeah. Can you hop out for me, please? >> I don't I don't want to hop out, sir. Like, what would I have to hop out? >> Can you please hop out me? Cuz we just going to Don't put it in drive. Do not put it in drive. Do not do not put it in drive. First of all, first of all, you first of all, you were reaching. >> Is there anyone that can uh head over here? >> In the next moment, chaos erupted as the driver fired up the engine and attempted a wild run, turning the scene into pure mayhem. Vehicle is going to be >> northbound fairway. >> Where's he at? >> He's right here. Right here. Right here. Right here. >> We're going to be going northbound fairway. >> Just turn your radio down the channel. >> He uh ran over the spike strip. was asked to step out was reaching. >> Was asked to step out was reaching and uncooperative. We're going northbound fairway. Traffic's light. Speeds are about 50 hill. [screaming] >> We need we need >> We need four to take primary. Copy that. >> We're passing coastal stage on fairway northbound. Speeds are 50 mph. Traffic >> four. >> Four. Take primary. >> Four. We need you to take primary because we're in a covert. >> Go, go, go, go, go, go. >> All right. Victor 59 turning into uh fairway apartments. Hit him. Go. Do not run. Do not give me an address. I >> got his hand. I'm here. I'm here. I'm here. Hey. >> Hey. He's reaching. >> Let me get this hand. Let me get >> It didn't take long for officers to get the suspect under control. At first, it seemed like just another case of suspended plates and a reckless attempt to flee. But hold on. The real shocker was still waiting to be revealed. >> Stop. That's my hand. That's my hand. >> Okay. Okay. >> Give me your hand. Let go of your left hand right now. >> Put him in custody right now. >> Is that gun? Is that gun? >> Hey, you're going to get shot. Do you hear me? You're going to get shot. >> You're going to get shot. >> It ain't worth it. >> Drop it. >> Drop it. >> Hey, he's pointing. >> Hey, let go. >> You're going to get shot. >> The gun. Let go of the gun. >> Go back. >> Wait, where are you? >> You guys ar my gun out. >> I'm pinning his arms, >> brother. It is not worth. >> It is not worth it. Stay on that hand, >> brother. Just let go. >> Let go. Do you hear me? There's a gun to your head. You're going to get shot. >> Do you hear me? >> Do you hear me? >> It's not worth it. >> Regenerate the waistband. >> It's not worth it. >> Hey, it is not worth it. >> Okay. >> Police. >> Do you hear me? >> Okay. >> Oh. [laughter] Stop. >> He won't get his hand. >> Get his hand. >> Okay, >> hold on. I'm going to control your hand. Let me control your hand. Okay. >> There's a gun to your head. >> You understand? Let me control your hand now. Okay. >> Out now. >> Hold it. No. Get the >> Let go. There should be no gun in your hand. >> Do not. >> You're going to get shot. >> You're going to get shot. >> Behind his back. After a long struggle, the suspect finally decided to cool down. But it was too late. By then, he had already stacked up more charges against himself, all while vocally expressing his frustration. >> Stop fighting. Stop. >> Worth your life, man. >> I can't believe y'all, man. >> That's not on us, bro. That's 100% on one recovered place. Anything you say can no suspended place, man. >> The place suspended the right to have an attorney present with you during any choose. >> Y'all bogus. >> Give me a second. >> Y'all bogus, man. >> Y'all bogus. >> Y'all bogus. All right. >> Everybody in custody. Somebody else standing. You have to unlock this a little bit and then I'll tighten it. >> I got it. I got it. I have it tightened this as hell, man. >> Put this back inside my dump. >> The suspect then complained of pain from the restraints. Officers appealed for calm compliance while arranging necessary assistance. >> Bro, it hurts so bad. It hurts so bad. the hospital. >> We're going to have to rehook the hospital. >> Don't tense up. Put your foot down. >> Okay. >> Put your foot down. >> He's been recuffed. >> He's been recuffed. >> I'm not moving, y'all. I'm not moving. >> Really better. >> I'm not moving. Look, look. My hands open. Can you please wrestle one thing at a time? >> Well, if you stop grabbing for guns, we won't have to deal with that. >> Okay. >> Okay. Can you relax? >> These are I mean, they're kind of insificant, but he just wants to kill us. All right, we can't leave this car, guys. >> I don't want to leave this car just wide open. >> I'm I'm I'm on I'm on. >> As the suspect was taken into custody, a family member arrived at the scene. For her, the unfortunate reality was that her car had now been seized. >> It registers to my grandfather. Um, he got the car. >> So, and again, the reason we stopped the car is cuz the plates are coming back suspended for mandatory insurance violation. >> Someone told me that, but I do have coverage. >> Okay. Um, >> that's Hey, that's here nor there at this point, right? I mean, >> we're just I'm just letting you know that that plate the plates are suspended on it. >> So, you have to cover that with the DMV. So, here's the deal with that. Because of what was involved tonight, we are towing it and we are seizing it. >> What does that mean? >> That means it's going to be ours for a little while. >> What? A little while? >> Yeah. Like, we're seizing it. So technically this will go to um like a court case and they'll tell us whether it's going to be actually seized and whether it's going to remain with the police department for the duration of it's life essentially. >> It's life. >> Yeah. That's what happens when we seize the car. It becomes ours. So again, there's going to be like a court appearance and stuff like that. It will go to court. Um and then ultimately they'll be the ones that actually make the final decision. That doesn't mean it will happen. I won't lie to you. I I don't know what will happen, but at this point it is being towed and we did put a seizure hold on it, but again, it goes to court. Does that make sense? >> I know that's not that's very unfortunate considering it's not his car technically, but with all the events that just took place with him fleeing and everything else. We have an aggravated fleeing now, so that makes it seasonable for for us. >> Does that make sense? I know that's real shitty news for you and I apologize for that. Devonte Gun was charged with aggravated fleeing, aggravated unlawful possession of a weapon, possession of a stolen firearm, attempted disarming of a police officer, armed violence, resisting and obstructing, and operating a vehicle with suspended registration. While Gun just added up charges against him with his non-stop criminal activity, our next suspect just believed that driving a vehicle while impaired was legal. >> Once we get to the jail, >> please. I don't want to go to jail. On April 24th, 2025, a silver Toyota 4Runner was pulled over after swerving across lanes on Detroit Avenue. The driver, Vana Stannis, seemed calm at first, but her responses soon raised concerns. When Officer Glansancy approached, Vana's behavior unfolded in a way no one expected. >> Were you in the hospital or? >> Yes. >> You okay? >> Yes. >> Do you have your firearm on you? Okay. >> Do you work at the hospital? >> Yes, I do. >> Okay. >> It's very beautiful. >> What do you do there? Um I am in ED in arrival and I'm always in the ED there forever the accounts and >> Okay. You do the accounts. >> Yeah. >> Okay. >> What's this? >> It's the same. >> Okay. Yeah. >> I just register my car. Yeah. >> It's your vehicle. >> Yeah. You still live? >> I do. >> What's good fun number for you? >> Anything illegal in the vehicle? Guns, knives, drugs, explosives. >> You know the alphabet, the English alphabet. A >> A B C D E F G F G I mean whatever. Okay. on the back. >> You had anything to drink tonight? >> No. >> No. Not leaving the bar or anything? >> No. I've been No, I've been very few. >> Okay. The reason I'm asking is cuz you're just driving down the middle of the road. You're not in a lane at all for about an entire block. You just drove straight down the middle of the road. Center of the road. >> I just want to go down the street. That's all. Because it's in the middle. That's all. I never I never went.

The officer's concern grew as her lack of coordination became increasingly evident, raising serious doubts about her ability to drive. >> When I tell you to begin, you're going to pick one foot, either foot. It doesn't matter which one. And what you're going to do is you're going to raise your foot approximately 6 in from the ground. You're going to keep it parallel to the ground.

It was a street that's uh closed and you cannot go nowhere. >> After failing the sobriety tests, Vana's fate was sealed. Despite pleading to go home, claiming it was her birthday and she had been celebrating. The officers proceeded with the arrest, unmoved by her desperate request. >> No interior. >> I really don't. >> We're going to have to take uh your jewelry off once we get to the gym on the once we get to the jail.

She insisted that she wasn't intoxicated and that her impaired driving was simply a result of being tired and unfamiliar with the area.
