📢 WATCH & LISTEN! Driver calls 911 during pursuit - Hear him on the phone while PIT / TVI performed

[@PolicePursuits]

Trooper's Report: While on patrol and running moving radar I observed V1 traveling at a high rate of speed on the 89 South bypass in the city of Mayflower. I activated my rear antenna and verified V1's speed to be at 70 MPH in a 35 MPH zone. I turned around and began to attempt to close the distance on V1. V1 traveled from Highway 89 S onto the eastbound entrance of Interstate 40 East. As I closed the distance, I activated my lights and then ultimately my siren due to the speed achieved. Once I knew that the driver of V1 (D1) was aware that I was behind him, I notified the Arkansas State Police Troop A Communications Center that I was in pursuit. The pursuit continued on Interstate 40 East reaching speeds of approximately 122 MPH. D1 began passing cars on the shoulder and driving erratic. I was then notified by Tfc. Ethan Carlton that D1 was in contact with the Faulkner County Communications Center. He advised that he was not stopping at that he was going home due to an emergency involving his daughter. The phone call was then transferred to the Arkansas State Police Communications Center. In the meantime, V1 exited Interstate 40 East to State Highway 365 at the 142-mile marker. V1 turned left and traveled north on State Highway 365 at a high rate of speed and reckless. At one point, V1 passed on a double yellow nearly hitting a car head on. I advised the Arkansas State Police Communications to tell him that if he did not stop, I was going to perform a P.I.T. maneuver. V1 then turned left onto Lunn Road from State Highway 365 continuing to travel at a high rate of speed. At this point I had an opportunity to conduct a T.V.I. and therefore a successful T.V.I. was conducted. As I exited my vehicle with my handgun drawn and light activated, I observed D1's hands to be empty and visible through the windshield. I gave verbal commands to D1 as I sliced the pie on V1. The driver exited V1 and was taken into custody without further incident. As other Troopers responded I asked them to go to the house to check on the daughter of D1. As it turns out there was no emergency, and the daughter was found to be fine. V1 was towed by Jim Smith Wrecker Service. D1 was transported to Faulkner County Unit II and charged with Fleeing 5-54- 125 (d)(2). 00:00 - Please like and subscribe! 00:30 - Suspect passes Trooper going twice the posted speed limit 01:52 - 10-37!

This guy is a former officer and this is how he handled an emergency. Complete fool who risked his and everyone else's life. He actually said his wife was calling the police while he was driving home. He needs to teach his daughter that if she is home alone and thinks someone broke in to call 911 instead of dad and mom who are not home. Expensive lesson.

[@isaac198428]

*For a former police officer, that clown has a lot of audacity.* From his training and Leo experience, he knows that fleeing from the police when they are conducting a lawful stop doesn’t have a justifiable reason. Then driving in the wrong lane head-on into oncoming traffic and passing on the shoulder adds up to *an automatic trip to jail earning a felony fleeing charge* . Putting hazard lights on or calling 911 dispatcher doesn’t work in your favor either. R.i.p to his nice vehicle now destroyed by his foolishness. Sucks not having a reliable vehicle anymore when you live in the middle of nowhere, far away from public transportation of any sort. 😂

[@LatitudeSky]

Technically they're not supposed to let someone use a phone at all at that point. They cut this guy a huge courtesy. He at least kept his mouth shut about his situation he would not have been allowed to tell anyone, normally. I'm sure the officers at the house spilled the beans. Dad only got four days served for this and a year of probation. His car insurance will not cover the wreck because he was fleeing. So he's out the vehicle. That's his punishment for risking lives. Pretty sad.

[@jaytee2642]

​@@LatitudeSky But this wasn't a normal cut-and-dried arrest. They let him call her out of concern for her safety. I couldn't hear the phone call very well, but it sounded like she DID leave the house and they were instructing her to go meet them on the porch. The cops had to confirm she was alright, so that required a phone call to find out where she was. Did I misunderstand the phone call? The sound quality was really bad for me.👂🏻

He said he wasn’t thinking. At least there was one thing he said truthful.

[@rcrawford42]

He was high on himself.

[@philwilliams8328]

Claims his daughter is in danger, has his cell phone with him but decides to drive there rather than call the police. Yeah.....right.

What a goober!!! Glad hes not a LEO anymore

From the report: "I gave verbal commands to D1 as I sliced the pie on V1." That sliced the pie term is a new one to me and I watch a ton of these videos.

[@leesashriber5097]

Me too!! WTF does it mean?!?🤔

[@elidawmcn01]

"Slicing the pie or "pie-ing" refers to the analogy of a tactical pie that officers and suspects are attempting to slice so they will gain a larger piece for themselves, i.e., a superior tactical advantage over the opponent in the confrontation." 😊

[@PolicePursuits]

It is a technique taught in the military and in some law enforcement schools to clear areas for threats. It is designed to minimize exposure around cover and maximize the tactical advantage. Think slowing peeking around a blind corner.

[@404nitro]

@@elidawmcn01 Yeah, I figured that, but just have never heard it in any of these videos before. Appreciate the reply!

he needs alot more than a year

[@wickedmuffin76]

@@chris52209 Fleeing really needs to have a mandatory minimum sentence, with enhancements for things like going in to oncoming traffic, and hitting any other vehicles. Would at least cut down on repeat offenders. I watched a video a while back that said the driver had been involved in 18 chases in 3 years, or something like that.

[@wickedmuffin76]

They are all on video now, easy enough to prove what happened in court.

Why in the hell do people who claim that they are in trouble, call everyone but Law Enforcement? How is Mom or Dad going to help when Dad is probably 30 minutes away, when one phone call could of had 3 Officers their in about 5 minutes. Never will understand what both parents could of done.

[@katbot2190]

I'm just glad the daughter is ok. I do wonder if either parent called the law?

[@joefisk4448]

the daughter was always ok

[@VincentPhason]

Thanks very much. It sounded like they caught "Andre the Giant" as he also has/had a daughter as well but sadly passed away many years ago. I worked in the Wrestling business for 3 years and had the honour to meet Andre. Despite what a lot of folks say about Andre, and his enormous size (he was about 510 lbs when I met him) he was very kind and gentle (at least to me and my friends/co-workers). When a man cannot fit in any police vehicle with that many vehicles around with full or single cages (I only watched once and that is what I think I heard the officers say?) the gent must be a very large man. Glad to hear the daughter is okay and hopefully the gent will get his issues settled and be able to enjoy his family. Very sad in certain ways, but happy in others.

[@rcrawford42]

Everything I've ever read about Andre says he was a great guy.

[@abigailirvine3414]

If it was an emergency stop tell the officer and he will escort you there at high speed

[@thishandleisnotavailable]

Let me share a story. Back after graduating High School, my friend had received a call from his father saying that he wasnt feeling well. My friend knew something was serious so he left immediately. About 2 hours later I get a call from the County Jail. My friend had been pulled over for criminal speed and arrested. He bailed out and when he got home, he found his father dead, suffered from a heart attack. No one else was around to help him. If it were me, I wouldnt have stopped for the cop. Some things are just more important

[@PolicePursuits]

Sometimes you just do what you have to do and live with the consequences. But understand the Trooper has a job to do, too. Watching a vehicle drive that reckless and taking no action would have been just as bad.

[@neolithicnobody8184]

Anyone else would be charged and convicted of a felony. They didn't even charge him for all of the other infractions he violated. Are we showing favoritism, ASP?? LEOs should be held at a higher standard, as they should know better than to do what he did. Trooper Brown, you should be ashamed of yourself for not charging him with everything possible. Seeing this makes me LOSE RESPECT for ASP Troopers, not gain it.

[@justice4everybody]

Where does it show what he was charged with versus what he pled guilty to, the latter having little to do with the arresting officer and more to do with the prosecutor’s office.

[@neolithicnobody8184]

@@justice4everybody It's in the Trooper's Report in the description of what he was charged with and there was only one charge. The description also shows what he plead guilty to, one misdemeanor. No speeding, no reckless operation, no left of center. He should've had multiple charges listed in that Report, not just one. And the one he was charged with should've been a felony, not a misdemeanor. Anybody else would have a big list of charges if they did what he did.

[@stacyjohnson42]

​@@neolithicnobody8184and when Trooper Brown seen who it was it sounded like he regretted pitting him when he was saying you could have gave me 5 seconds your car is totaled now

Again speeding never gains you the time you think it does. At 60 mph you will gain 1 min. So driving less than 30 miles gains only a couple of minutes.

[@domoore546]

What a DA, now he's got plenty of time to talk to the ASP!!!! His nice Venture is probably F'ed Up and his insurance is NOT going to cover damage caused while committing a FELONY!!! What a loser!!
