Road Rage with a weapon quickly becomes a FELONY PURSUIT (Arkansas State Police) Chevrolet Traverse

Report:
On 9/1/2024, at approximately 10:03 am, ASP dispatch broadcasted a call for a gray Chevrolet Traverse traveling northbound
on Interstate 530 around the 3-mile marker. A witness stated that the driver (Anthony Foreman) of the Traverse was waving a
black and red handgun out of the window. I was on the shoulder of Interstate 30 East at Roosevelt. As the Traverse
approached, I visually observed it speeding above the posted speed limit and confirmed its speed with my front radar (65/50
MPH zone).
I initiated a traffic stop on the Traverse as it exited Interstate 30 East at 9th Street at approximately 10:05 am. Foreman pulled
into a vacant parking lot at 823 E Ninth St. I exited my unit and informed Foreman the reason for the stop. Foreman was
compliant until I went to his side of the vehicle to have him exit. Foreman then fled by vehicle from the traffic stop at
approximately 10:09 am.
Foreman exceeded the posted speed limit (25 MPH) for the duration of the pursuit as he recklessly drove through residential
areas, turning from one city street to another and disregarding stop signs. Foreman came to a stop between 1001-1049 E 11th
St, exited his vehicle and fled on foot. Foreman was located in the backyard of 1220 Hanger St where Trooper Bratton utilized
his taser to affect the arrest (202416391ASP).
No handgun was found in the Traverse, Foreman's footpath of travel, or on his person when he was placed into custody. A
scale containing marijuana residue was found under his floor mat.
Foreman stated that he never had a handgun and only held his phone out of the window when the vehicle would not stop
tailgating him. He also stated that he fled because he thought he had a warrant for a drug arrest that happened on May 9,
2024. Foreman's 15-year-old sister accompanied him while he fled as he was supposed to be taking her to get her nails done.
Foreman was charged with the following:
5-54-125(c): FLEEING - ON FOOT
27-50-308(b)(1)(B) 1ST: RECKLESS DRIVING - 1ST
5-54-125(d)(2) 2023: FLEEING - VEHICLE OR CONVEYANCE - EXCEEDING THE SPEED LIMIT
5-27-205: ENDANGERING THE WELFARE OF A MINOR - 1ST DEGREE (FELONY)
27-22-104: NO LIABILITY INSURANCE
27-51-201: SPEEDING - 1 TO 15 MPH OVER LIMIT
27-37-702: NO SEATBELT
27-51-601(d): FAIL TO OBEY STOP SIGN
5-64-443(a)(1): POSSESS DRUG PARAPHERNALIA

Since no weapon was found, you might want to correct the title of this video.

[@zackh7570]

​@@dougt5357the original 911 call was about road rage with a weapon, it doesn't change the reason of the stop, just because his alledged "pistol" was not discovered.

[@dougt5357]

@@zackh7570 Since there is NO proof of an y weapon, the title should not state such. The story will provide the information from the original call.

[@zackh7570]

@@dougt5357 again, the title is referencing reason for the stop. It is not what the guy is being charged with. I see nothing wrong with the title. the vehicle was *reported* in a road rage incident involving an *alleged* weapon. Had this of been a simple “speeding ticket pullover” and they added “with a weapon” in the title for clickbait, I would agree. However this is not the same, the officer essentially had the same information we got from the title prior to this stop. Even though no weapon was *discovered* in the end, I can only imagine the stress of the officer doing the traffic stop, and with the suspect fleeing he is lucky he didn’t get shot. (Being reported as Brandishing a pistol and then fleeing, typically don’t go well together) I’m not trying to be a dick btw, just giving my .02c.

[@MurgatroidGarfunkle]

@@dougt5357 The call was about a perp with a weapon. Perp said he ran because he was scared. My guess is he ran so he could toss the weapon. Mention of said weapon stays in the title because that's what it was about.

My wife left me for a state trooper. A year later, A trooper pulled up behind me and I increased my speed.
