H-29's incident report: "On September 18th, 2024, at approximately 12:19 PM, I was traveling northbound on N 6th Street. I observed a red Dodge 3500 matching the description of a vehicle stolen from Ozark, Arkansas headed southbound. I turned around and tried to get behind the vehicle to conduct a traffic stop. The vehicle immediately began running stop lights and driving very recklessly. The vehicle was running over 100 MPH southbound on N 6th Street. The vehicle was running stop signs and red lights at over 100 MPH. The vehicle turned westbound on Garrison Avenue and crossed the river into Oklahoma. The vehicle began driving westbound in the eastbound lanes on Highway 64. The vehicle went off into a soybean field and ramped drainage ditches. The vehicle began traveling southbound on a dirt road toward the Arkansas River. Once we got to the end of the dirt road, the vehicle ramped off into the banks of the Arkansas River. The driver (Tyler Jones) and passengers (Dusty Gregory and Kali Paul) ran on foot from the vehicle. The driver jumped into the river and began swimming away from me. After ordering him at gunpoint to swim to the bank, he began to swim towards me. After the driver was up on the bank, I began telling him to get on the ground and he refused to comply. I tackled the driver to the ground. Once on the ground, the driver refused to put his hands behind his back. After striking the driver in the chest area the driver complied and was placed under arrest. The passengers were located a short time later hiding in the bushes close to the truck. After placing all the suspects in Sequoyah County Sheriff's Office vehicles, one of the suspects (Dusty Gregory) stated he wanted to talk. I went to the patrol car, opened the door, and read him his rights. Mr. Gregory stated he knew where a stolen Kubota lawn mower the driver (Tyler Jones) had stolen was. After getting the location of the lawnmower, the Sequoyah County Sheriff’s Deputies transported the suspects to the jail. I went to Fort Smith to try and find the location of the stolen Kubota Lawnmower. After a few minutes, I located the lawn mower at 3714 Johnson Street. I contacted the owner of the residence (Jimmy Joslin). Mr. Joslin stated that Mr. Jones brought the trailer and lawn mower to his house and stated he needed to leave it there for a while. He stated he didn’t want it on his property and suspected it to be stolen. I called the Kubota dealer and had them run the VIN on the mower. The mower was purchased by the City of Van Buren. I contacted Lt. Steve Staggs with the Van Buren Police Department. Lt. Staggs stated the mower was stolen from their city. I went to the Sebastian County Prosecutor's Office and obtained a warrant (Warrant#2024-WCF-736013) for Mr. Jones for felony fleeing and theft by receiving."

I hope they charged this idiot with destroying that corn field.

Cpl. Matthew Price is excellent. Thank you for your service Cpl. Price!

[@katreniaclark]

What a great chase!!!!!!!! This chase was MUCH more of what I expected out of Arkansas.

[@404nitro]

Thank you ASP for all you do for the state, country and all the law abiding citizens. You are greatly appreciated.

[@tomcooper6108]

I love the way our LE, Oklahoma, and Arkansas talk to suspects. No bs, no sympathy, no response to their lames excuses... just straight forward tough talk.

[@tablerockkid8237]

Yep, they're appropriately PC.

[@coffeeondeck839]

Indeed! I watch a few of these videos from other states and I despise the coddling and allowing the suspects/criminals to take charge of the situation delaying the process… Especially with the underaged drunk drivers… they’re too soft with them!

[@Jusader]

That farmer must be pissed.

[@wisdomrules8474]

Absolutely!

This pursuit is beating the hell out of the cruiser, the cost of repairs should be added to his fines and I'm sure he'll have some.

That pursuit was very interesting! Cpl. Price was like a beagle on the trail of a rabbit. 🐇 Great job! Whatever is planted in those fields, it can't be corn. Our corn stalks here are 7' to 8' tall. It’s cool that both Cpl. Price and Sgt. Elmore are K-9 handlers. I was thinking about the dog being bounced around in Price's SUV while they were off-roading. I noticed that the unit isn't marked "K-9 Caution" like most places do and their dogs are very quiet. The K-9 deputy that I used to do ride-alongs with had a dog that wouldn't stop barking. 🤯

What I find amazing is the driver immediately after being cuffed states he works for Shelby with DTF and the female says she's also working with the police?! Why is it that CI's working with the police continue to be a menace to society and rarely get the appropriate sentencing for their crimes?

[@lockedonlaw]

Trooper Elmore at 35:13 ... "What are you doing?" ... the thoughts of every ASP Trooper on any pursuit, ever, anywhere.

Damn NST I’m agreeing with another commenter, I’ve seen a short version of this before but they left out best part. 👍Great video

James, loved the outgoing music!! Jasper was super talented! So on to the video. Three people in the STOLEN truck, two of them were just getting a ride, didn't know each other (right) and she didn't know the truck was stolen, whine, whine, whine, jeez louise! Put them all in jail in Oklahoma, make them sit there a while until the warrants come in from Arkansas and then throw them in jail. Driver sounds like a habitual thief anyway, SMH! Thank you James this was a great one!! Stay safe everyone. 😎

[@SharonJennings-ti5wb]

Good morning NST, James, family and friends! Since I am usually sleeping when these drop at night, I have a great morning with you! And this morning, I get the beautiful Arkansas sky and that wonderful “Trooper Accent” that I don’t hear on others. Thanks James for all you do. We greatly appreciate you!💙❤️💙

12:50: H-29 accidently pushes his EMERGENCY button on his portable radio. Those are confirmation tones that dispatch received the alert. Followed up with 13:02: "Fort Smith to H-29, 10-50 (are you OK)?" by Troop H Communications.

Why do you keep turning the mics off? It makes the video get boring.

[@kimberly1273]

I'm sure that's how NST receives the files. ASP will cut the audio if it is necessary.

[@petecollins4925]

It's usually the police who mute certain parts of the audio recording before releasing it into the public domain. I believe it is done to avoid problems arising if things like personal calls are taken or background check info is being discussed.

[@13thcolony57]

Outstanding pursuit through the woods and over the farm land. The Trooper stayed in the hunt. STAY SAFE OUT THERE TROOPER.

[@lawrencelitterini4973]

Back in the day Talking 80s I ran in the corn fields and jumped into blackberry bushes .. I laid there till from 9 to midnight 😂😂😂 i figured I never got caught because nobody else was dumb enough to dive into wild blackberry bushes.... That was the first and last time I got STUPID....

[@Dan-s5v]

The river bottoms outside of Moffett, OK have 3 things: farmland, natural gas wells, and some form of nefarious people up to no good at all times. What I’d like to have seen were all the criminals and crackheads already out in the river bottoms that heard sirens that day and ran back to Fort Smith or Roland like cockroaches when the lights come on!!

Yes. All black-all cloth Class “C” uniform. Used as drug interdiction and bad weather days. The light blue uniform is the standard issue “class B”.

How deep is that river right now? I can't believe he drove right into it! Drowning in a vehicle is one of my worst phobias. Please tell me they will pull it back out of the water?

[@petecollins4925]

Hi Mary Beth, I'm not sure that he actually drove into the river. If you read the trooper's report it says "the vehicle ramped off into the banks of the Arkansas River". I've always regarded the river bank as the solid ground right next to a river so I'm thinking maybe he ended up just short of the water.

[@Mary_Beth_Reimer]

@@petecollins4925 For his sake I hope so. It did say he was trying to swim, though. Either way, he deserves some jail time!

[@Dan-s5v]

Where he ran off would be shallow even if they made it all the way in. That side of the Arkansas River right through there usually has steep banks and the river has not been deep lately. It would be recoverable.
