On November 13, 2023, at approximately 1:06 P.M., I was on Interstate 630 East at Rodney Parham on routine patrol. While observing traffic I noticed a black Dodge Challenger displaying Arkansas Tag (ARX97R), returning to a 2008 Toyota Camry. I activated my emergency blue lights and the suspect vehicle (S-1) began to flee recklessly through traffic. After crossing multiple lanes of traffic without signaling, S-1 merged onto the south roadside shoulder and continued driving east towards Pine and Cedar Streets. S-1 made a right turn onto the Pine and Cedar Street exit ramp and then made another right turn onto 11th Street. S-1 accelerated to speeds above 100 M.P.H through the residential neighborhood before proceeding west on 12th Street. Once I turned onto 12th Street, S-1 began to evade at a high rate of speed and drove into the oncoming traffic lane. S-1 ran the red light at 12th Street and University. Once I crossed the intersection at 12th Street and University, S-1 had gained a substantial distance between my unit and his. I saw S-1 make a right turn onto Rodney Parham and then lost sight of the vehicle. Trooper Smith regained sight of the vehicle at Rodney Parham and Interstate 630. I became secondary in the pursuit at this time. S-1 continued to flee at a high rate of speed through city streets and ran the red light at Mississippi and Markham. Trooper Kemp could still see the vehicle and stated he made a left turn onto Cantrell Road. Once we approached Cantrell Road, we lost sight of the suspect and discontinued the pursuit. A Little Rock Police Department Unit discovered the suspect vehicle at 3 Iowa Cir. Little Rock, AR 72227. I arrived on scene and made contact with civilians in the area regarding the suspect vehicle being parked in front of the house. The homeowner of the house the suspect vehicle was parked in front of was having the lawn serviced by Luiz Lopez (DOB 9/8/1976). Lopez stated that he saw the suspect exit the vehicle and run behind the house. Lopez stated he was blowing the leaves and heard a vehicle driving extremely fast, which scared him because the vehicles typically drive slow in the neighborhood. Lopez said hearing the car made him pay close attention to who was driving due to the circumstances. I asked Lopez to describe the suspect and if the person driving the vehicle was the same person that I showed him from the registered owner of the fictitious tag. Mr. Lopez said it was a younger black male and verified his identity after seeing a driver’s license photo via ACIC. The driver was identified as Markevus Deshun Taggart (DOB 8/10/2002 B/M). Mr. Lopez verified that he was the operator and sole occupant in the vehicle and that he fled on foot from the vehicle. After speaking with civilians in the area I began to investigate the vehicle. I looked at the vehicle identification number (VIN) on the front driver side dash and determined the vehicle’s VIN plate appeared altered. I continued my investigation and determined the vehicle’s VIN plates had been altered from 2C3CDZBTXKH641785 to 2C3CDZAG5KH557507. The vehicle's true VIN number is 2C3CDZBTXKH641785. A check through NCIC revealed that this vehicle was stolen out of North Little Rock in 2021. Troop A Communications checked and confirmed the stolen vehicle with North Little Rock Police (Report Number - 2021086167). I began to inventory the vehicle and discovered the suspect's information in the vehicle. I discovered a Social Security Card with the name of Markevus Deshun Taggart. I also located an RNR lease order form with Taggart's name, date of birth, driver's license number, and address. Taggart additionally had an Amazon package with his name on it and the mother of his child’s address. Taggart left the Dealer License Plate Registration form returning to Ashley Auto Sales and an insurance card with Ashley Auto Sales as the insurer in the car. Asher Wrecker Service towed the vehicle and a hold was placed on the vehicle until further notice. No additional evidence was located in the vehicle. The investigation was concluded with no further incident.

[@traceymcdonald7949]

Especially given the fact that there are other options that are safer and more effective. These seem more ego driven than anything. This officer continued to drive recklessly and broke several traffic laws AFTER he turned his emergency lights off. They spend millions in tax payer funds on the aftermath of these chases. If it was really about catching the criminals and holding them accountable they would use star chase or some other method

[@traceymcdonald7949]

It is disturbing that after turning his lights off the officer continued to drive recklessly speeding and weaving in and out of traffic continued blowing thru stop signs etc. There are too many ways to track/locate/end these kinds of chases that don't involve driving thru city streets at 100+ MPH endangering the public. Not to mention how much these chases can cost the tax payers as a whole. There are too many other options that are safer and more effective. Star chase is just one option

[@TangoDelta8111]

Thats the part that really disturbed me. He drove aggressively without lights and confused the crap out of those other drivers. An innocent driver could have easily been in an accident caused by him.

[@CountryBoyTerry]

Arkansas could really use those things where a siren or a infrared strobe changes the lights to green. If they didn’t have to just about stop at every red light they could keep up

[@genefogarty5395]

Lol, then every other car goes. There's a reason why ambulances have them and not cops. And also why they only work on certain lights with ground grids.

[@cavaleir1]

@brabbit4762 what video did you just watch this one they never stop at any red light, this is why when they cross into the state of Tennessee they have to abort the chase Tennessee official saw these videos and Notice that is a Safety to there Citizens which could be one of them.
