*North Little Rock, Arkansas* *Happy Taco Tuesday!* On 7/13/2025 at 1708 hours as I was stopped at a traffic light at Broadway and Cypress, I observed a white Ford Escape (LPN DB 413328) disregard the traffic control device as it was traveling east on Broadway. I activated my emergency lights and initiated a traffic stop on the vehicle as it pulled into the Shell gas station (605 E Broadway). As I exited my patrol vehicle and waited for Communications to provide me with the ACIC return, the driver, later identified as Robert Bolton (Offender) fled from the traffic stop and continued east onto Broadway. I then activated my sirens, updated Communications, and pursued Mr. Bolton down Broadway.  I then activated my sirens, updated Communications, and pursued Mr. Bolton down Broadway. As the pursuit continued east bound, my speed reached up to 98 mph as I was approaching Broadway and Smothers, where Bolton disregarded the red light.  Bolton continued onto Powerline where I observed a marked unit stopped ahead in the opposite lane of traffic once we proceeded over the railroad tracks. Bolton then maneuvered his vehicle into the opposite lane almost hitting the marked unit, but he went back into the right lane of traffic.  As Bolton entered the on ramp to Intestate 30 east bound he passed a vehicle as they were merging on the interstate as well, and the vehicle yielded to the pursuit where I was able to safely merge onto the interstate. .  As we continued in the neighborhood my speed reached 74mph and Bolton lost control of the vehicle as it was traveling west onto 35th Street. Bolton continued west on 35th approaching Schaer Street where my speed was 29mph. Bolton turned north on Camp Robinson where there was only one vehicle in the southbound lane, then immediately turned east onto 36th Street. Bolton continued east onto 36th Street at high rate of speed and disregarded a stop sign at 36th and Gum, however there was no traffic. My speed reached 46 mph and Bolton lost control of his vehicle again and spun the vehicle in the yard of 3520 N Orange Street. At that time, Bolton’s front bumper was facing towards my direction as I was pulling up and attempting to block him in. As I approached Bolton’s front end, my front bumper struck the front end of Bolton’s front bumper. As my vehicle was approaching Bolton’s front bumper, Bolton was maneuvering the vehicle forward. Bolton then put the vehicle in reverse and maneuvered around my vehicle and fled north on Orange Street at a high rate of speed.  There was no traffic as we continued north on Orange Street where he disregarded the stop sign at 38th Street and my speed reached 45mph. Bolton then stopped at the stop sign at 44th and Orange for a few seconds. The secondary officer behind me attempted to block Bolton, but he maneuvered around and turned east onto 44th Street and then south onto Maple Street. As we pursued Bolton south on Maple Street, there was no traffic and my speed reached 53mph. Bolton then turned back west onto F Avenue. As officers pursued west on F Avenue, my speed reached 35mph with no traffic. Bolton then turned north on Orange Street, then west onto 36th Street, then north on Willow Street as my speed reached up 32mph with no traffic. Bolton then turned east onto 38th street where my speed reached 40mph. Bolton then turned south on Maple Street before pulling up a small hill in the yard of  Maple Street and coming to a complete stop.  At that point officers completed a high risk stop and took Mr. Bolton into custody. Search incident to arrest, Officer Jurisic located a Ziploc bag containing a brownish green leafy substance that was stuffed into Bolton’s shorts. The leafy substance had a texture consistent with marijuana with a strong odor, but the odor was not consistent with marijuana. (See Officer Jurisic supplement). I suspected the substance to be K2(synthetic marijuana). After identifying Bolton, it was later discovered that the vehicle belonged to XXXXXX XXXXXX who was standing outside. XXXXXXX confirmed that the driver of the vehicle was her cousin Robert Bolton and an identification card with his information was located in the driver’s seat. Mr. Bolton was transported to Pulaski County Regional Detention Facility and charged accordingly.
