June 2021 RV chase dashcam footage

[@kylekinner6095]

I’m not a police expert but that sure seemed like a bad call for whoever was in charge to not authorize that pit. He had a such a good chance with no traffic around but they didn’t give him permission and let the RV drive onto the highway into the oncoming lanes, endangering way more lives.

[@banditeastlick2471]

There is a lot of things that go into play when they are in this scenario. Old cars are police officers that want a new car will be lead car. If nobody wants to damage the car, you still have the opportunity to have more officers on the gravy train. It's healthy and builds Brotherhood characteristics when they all get to play together and work as a team. It also eats up the clock. Have you ever seen a RV come completely apart when it leaves the road? It's a big mess. Perhaps they don't have a friend that has a tow truck company that will clean up the mess, if not the city will have to clean it up themselves. They like to award themselves so that they can get the pay grades and the stripes desired. They participate in random acts of kindness like this for their Valor. It's exactly like the military but the whole thing that they're supposed to be doing is different

Mankel, who is a member of the Chippewa Indian Tribe, was previously charged with multiple crimes regarding a missing infant case in 2019, according to WILX News 10. According to that news station, police arrested Mankel and her adult daughter Ilah Mankel, in Clinton County after Ilah was ordered to give up her newborn daughter but did not. Ilah was ordered to give up her custodial rights when the child was born and the infant was supposed to go into protective custody after an order was issued by the state. Michigan State Police said the family was aware of this but they took off with the infant anyway. Police arrested Linda and Ilah who did not have the baby with them, but police were able to eventually locate the infant and return her to the Isabella Indian Reservation. Ilah was charged with parental kidnapping while Linda was charged with giving police a false name, resisting and obstruction of justice and possession of heroin.

@@user-cg9zq4bt5q well, I've never tried to pit a camper so I really don't know how easy it is. But I do know they weigh a lot more than a police car, (prob a Dodge charger). At higher speeds that would be a bit trickier to pull off. That's why he waited till he had him at slow speeds and could get squarely into the back end to push it out of control

[@user-cg9zq4bt5q]

@@davezabriskie6365 dude it's a van with a shell on it . Large high center of mass(easier to push out of the way at high speeds/stability, not to mention only 3 wheels) not moving, it would be a challenge. But way easier then say ....a semi/towtruck/bus/etc. at speed When cop was on the side with outer momentum on the turns, that would have been Ideal. Light tap send that thing launching off the side

[@jmac6522]

Any one else noticed how he used the push bumper of his patrol car to hook the campers rear bumper? He took over the control of both vehicles and she wasn’t going to get very far after that. The officer did a very fine pit and also kept control over both of the vehicles.

Incredible teamwork and precision in this intense RV chase, highlighting the importance of staying calm under pressure.

[@MarceloRomero360]

Officer at the wheel kept his cool at 110 mph!! Solid team work!👍👍

[@acompetitivehalo594]

I love how the officer had all that time to PIT him safely with no other people around and wasn't given the OK, but the second he could PIT, he pitted him into oncoming traffic stopped at a light. I'm pretty sure he bumped the RV into the first car in that lineup.

[@WarthunderClipsAndShorts]

This went on WAYYYYY To long.... The PIT is an option for a reason!

[@pats4700]

They have to get a supervisors approval. It's a big deal

[@DeeTofa]

I'm guessing the supervisor didn't want to pit because the RV could have children in the back.

[@tim9430]

That didn't get past me either. It was as if she drove that entire chase, often against the flow of traffic, w/o even considering the danger to herself or anyone else...particularly the officer. And now he's just bothering her! One can only imagine the stupid movements she made after being stopped, reaching around in the cab and such...trying to get herself shot! Good on that cop for his nerves of steel and for the risk he took on himself to avoid having to hurt her. I know that's part of his job, but you you can see how hard some folks make that job!

[@NightryeOfficial]

It's called a rolling roadblock. Once they pit the vehicle they have the option to either pit or rolling roadblock if speeds are right condition.

[@sdavis7916]

This is literally criminal for not allowing them to pit. They head miles and miles and miles where they were not around any other vehicles. Yet they weren't allowed to put and this chase kept on going on and on and on. This is the type of idiocy that the police have to deal with these days, it's inexcusable they ended up having to let this person potentially kill someone because they couldn't pit.

Oh, I don't know...I think it was pretty bold to pit that b---ch. And- he did it right. No damage to his car, no damage to other drivers, RV came to full stop. Good way to end a chase.

[@nothankyou4785]

@@donnaswan347 Everything that you just said had absolutely nothing to do with the original poster's, comment. The police officer asked for permission to perform a PIT maneuver while the RV was traveling on the highway at a fast speed (with a flat tire) and with many other vehicles all over the place. That would of been a disaster in the making and that is one of the reasons that permission was DENIED. So...your response was not an actual valid response to the original poster's comment, it was simply your own comment on a different situation and scenario, when the PIT maneuver was performed at a later time under much different circumstances.

[@donnaswan347]

@@nothankyou4785 Granted...there were a couple times when the traffic was too heavy. The first time he requested the pit maneuver, he was on a ramp but it quickly turned into heavy traffic, and that definitely was not the time to pit her vehicle.

When a heavy car has one wheel completely missing, it's very hard or impossible to accelerate. So, if pitting is too difficult, just try to slow the vehicle down. How hard can that be ?
