🚨 2024 Funny Backstory: David W Barber, 49, -is- [was] due in court on March 13, 2023 on felony charges of terroristic threatening and fleeing. Couldn't find an update, so might have pleaded out. Idk Allegedly, supposedly, maybe, who really knows, he had grenades and weapons in the truck after making threats which s why there was such a priority to stop him. ps he looks like the Unabomber. His mugshot is on mugshotzone. Now this is FUNNY!!! 🤣 For those commenting about the PIT into incoming traffic, the only reason there is any info out there on this stop was because this case was used by some people challenging TVIs as part of LE tools. Claiming they are dangerous. (Really? Oh no! 🙄) The ASP addressed the concerns by referring to the TVI instructions that strongly suggest TVIs be performed at 35mph or less. [🤣] However, it was pointed out that it is up to the officer"s discretion. 🚓🚨🚓🚨🚓 Interesting enough, it was also mentioned that the body and dash cam videos have become popular and revenues generated help with LE training such as the TVI course. Details from THV11 Author: Rolly Hoyt Published: 11:03 PM CST February 21, 2023, Updated: 11:03 PM CST February 21, 2023 September 15, 2022, Conway Police alerted troopers that a suspect named David [Wayne] Barber, 49, was trying to escape arrest for threatening, by flying toward North Little Rock at greater than 100MPH. Trooper Joseph Killian intercepted the blue Chevy pick-up just past the interchange with I-430 and I-40. He became the primary officer as the suspect weaved across all three lanes and both shoulders through one of the busiest highways in the state. Five minutes after taking up the chase and just past the complicated I-30 terminal and split to US 67/167. Trooper Mark Blackerby then took charge and delivered a fateful order. "I got the radio. Just drive," he said. "When you get a chance, when you get past this traffic, PIT him." Trooper Killian did as ordered. He drew his cruiser to the left rear quarter of the truck and steered right. It caused the truck to veer to the left into the grass median. The cover of the truck bed could be seen flying away- and Killian, as well as the suspect careen across the oncoming lanes of traffic.

I'm thinking they might want to change them sirens, it seems like people need something a lot more annoying to get them to move outta the damn way.

[@bobdevries4028]

Even more annoying? Gosh! Current police sirens already produce an ear splitting sound! 😖

[@henry55430]

What's needed is a speaker override in the car that tells the driver to move over immediately

[@brianbickle7395]

Or pay attention to their surroundings

[@Hastings1066TV]

At high speeds, sirens become useless, lights get washed out during bright sunlight. It's really annoying when people don't move out of your way, but this is why the training is so long. Present your vehicle, allow time for vehicles to react, and do not bully other vehicles out of the way , because they often slam on their brakes and you in the response vehicle have nowhere to go. With a polac the higher trained driver is responsible for any other actions of other road users. May not sound right, but that's what we ended up with.

[@GR-bn3xj]

Yes in a lot of these videos people do not pull over and I get the point that you can't hear the sirens at that speed but so many are camped in the left lane to begin with when they shouldn't be.

[@srg6532]

Anyone that starts running from the police and gets to 100 mph should automatically be considered armed and dangerous and dealt with accordingly.

[@GR-bn3xj]

@Fred Freddy I think the Arkansas State Patrol could teach many other states a few things about Chases. They end them quickly. Now in certain cases, like this one it was a dangerous move But it did work. You don't see hour long chases in Arkansas and ultimately that leads to fewer people getting hurt in fewer destruction of property. What you do get is a higher chance of mortality when they end the chase. It's a different philosophy. The one thing we cannot measure is how many people did not run because of the reputation of the Arkansas State Police. If we could we, could weigh whether this was a better approach or not but without that stat it's hard to actually give them a score on their approach. I'm glad that we can at least see the good and the bad of this different approach, because making the officers simply follow and do nothing is very frustrating to all, especially when that car side swipes a ton of cars.

Then the bad guy could really get away if he had a fast car. Did this guy think a 6,000 lb+ PU would outrun the cops? Most pickup trucks are factory set around 100 MPH because of tire ratings. This can be reprogramed but the tire speed rating?

[@DefenderOfAvril]

I love ASP, but this was a bad PIT. He should have PITed him from the right side, not the left. I understand that there was no space for the PIT from the right because of those two big trucks, but he should have waited I little longer for a better spot then. I hate pitting from the left side on these freeways, because when the PIT is not perfect, it will usually send suspects vehicle flying onto the upcoming traffic, putting innocent drivers in harms way. Anyway I´m glad that nobody was hurt and I´ve still enjoyed this another APS Dukes of Hazard moment 😆 Also thanks for this dash cam view, LHRN only had the different one from the secondary unmarked ASP car.

[@sirjudge5055]

I agree! If your PIT sends an out-of-control vehicle into oncoming traffic lanes. You need to be assigned to a desk job.

[@a20axf]

Although this might also make the case for more guardrails in the middle to prevent that? I appreciate it differs throughout each state, but it would definitely prevent that oncoming traffic risk.

Those troopers have to get the reckless driver off the road to avoid many innocent lives being lost. Your thought process just amazes me. It's always the police who are wrong, no matter what the criminal does?? I feel sorry for people who always feel the need to blame the ones who are trying to protect the public. It's rather sickening and twisted in so many ways.

​@donnawilson2092 I dunno they said wait until traffic is clear.....might of waited until I was not right next to a semi truck......they did have to get that moron off the road......but traffic wasn't that heavy ......could of waited for a spot that was a bit more clear and pushed him to the right vs left into on coming traffic.....if the semi truck was not there she could of pushed him to the right away from on coming traffic

[@robyndombrowski3375]

I just wish I had more context. Was the officer alright? Did the bad guy live? What were his final charges? Great pit! Just wish I had a lil more info.

[@tlw2585]

I love watching ASP, mainly because y'all don't take any shit. 👍

[@BotsWeekendCovers]

Now THAT WAS A PIT! Balls of steel! Hope all are good except the POS in the truck! Let the Bork Borks get some Nom Noms!!!

[@christophergaudreau9265]

Clearly the trooper has video of every tractor-trailer in the Hammer Lane I'd be mailing them traffic citations just for that if it was a law 😊. . . AGAIN I AM TRUCKER & thank you ASP

[@TravisWBurton]

Yes, it is law in Arkansas that the left lane is for passing only. And yes, ASP needs to mail citations to everyone that didn't want to move to the right lane.

[@debbieellett9093]

I love hearing the growl of the engine in ASP patrol cars! And seeing the PIT is what makes me addicted to these videos!❤👏👏👏❤

[@washguy9577]

That was very skilled pit in small space on left side nice work. Also exciting to watch.

[@rodrod383]

2nd!....and damn he took him out haha....PS put your phone down and buckle up ASP is about to PIT you!

[@dlb3512]

I am a citizen of the state of Arkansas and I would appreciate it if the law enforcement would enforce the law concerning driving in the left lane and start issuing tickets and fines to these damn people who think the left lane is for casual driving and sight seeing.

[@terryandrews7271]

I'm getting very old but I know one thing if I go to Arkansas I will be careful, They don't screw around. I used to have a lot of hot rods when I was young, A hopped up Corvette, But that video scared the shit out of me, They were very lucky that day

[@billherber7269]

At freeway speeds it is difficult to hear the sirens until they are close. I learned that by practical application in the academy.

[@nancyevans7946]

These Arkansas troopers are awesome 👏👏

[@lloydryan-e4l]

I worked the road in Clackamas County Oregon for the Sheriff's Office for 24 years in the 60s 70s and eighties. did my share of pursuits. They are all exciting when you are a young Deputy but was you mature they become scary. We didn't have the pit maneuver then we chased until we caught or they got away. I watch these now that often end in deaths to the culprit and or innocent folks. There is no end to human stupidity.

[@Adam_Gray]

Bo and Luke Duke would be proud of that PIT.

[@markroush7182]

Should be a mandatory 10 years for trying to run from police.

[@brandons538]

Did they get knocked out from the pit? Awesome job guys 👍😁

[@hoytoy100]

Love the timber truck just cruising in the left lane.

[@haserotmalach7324]

Nice job taking a chance and throwing that pick-up truck directly into oncoming traffic!

[@James-cz5hf]

Do you think the K-9 officer doggy is disappointed when he doesn't get to bite the dummy?

[@marmeone]

Wow, I didn't expect that! Hope the Trooper is ok.

[@xheralt]

One should never try to play around with an agency whose initials spell "ASP"...the snakes bite is deadly.

[@misterdeeds2172]

ASP are some crazy mutha's. They don't give a shit about anything but catching whoever they are pursuing. I know catching the bad guys is essential, but damn. I sure wouldn't want to be in the oncoming lanes when a pickup truck and a state trooper pursuit unit come bouncing across the roadway right in front of me. They, the cops, catching the bad guy wouldn't serve as any form of comfort if their efforts hurt or kill others. I've seen ASP PIT vehicles while traveling in excess of 100 mph. How can you possibly know the outcome of such a move? There has got to be a better, safer way. Really glad no one what hurt.

[@Paul-h2x1k]

I have driven for many decades, one thing I have noticed since the introduction of mobile phones, especially smart phones, is that people are not paying attention to their surroundings. In the 60's thru the 90's drivers would have moved over MUCH sooner than these drivers. Pay attention people, assume they are chasing someone who might cause you or your family harm.

[@anthonyevans535]

Arkansas, Florida, and New Mexico have the best officers in America I think..

[@haleyadams28]

It's 7:30 on a Saturday night and here i am watching police pursuit videos

[@arkansaspoliceactivity]

Enjoy Haley

[@franksalsa9342]

Every person that doesn't move over prior to having a trooper up on them should be ticketed.

[@andsoitbegins464]

I agree. Might wake 'em up a little.

[@mariewintersteen7098]

Used to be a time when truckers had CB radios and could warn other truckers about what was coming up behind them! Now most new drivers have cell phones!

[@mikedoucette99]

Well done, very professional!!

[@timothyelliott6506]

They should have showed the Pit Maneuver from the dashcam of the Officer's Car who Performed the Maneuver.. now that would have been worth seeing!!

[@maifantasia3650]

From 1:32 to 1:45.

[@beladan]

Must be State Don't Pull To the Fucking Right Day.
