Arkansas State Trooper Ends 130 MPH Pursuit With Head On Collision.

First Angle of the Crash 20:40
Second Angle: 21:40
On December 4th, 2020, Arkansas State Police Dispatch was contacted by a Officer from The Arkansas Highway Police (ArDOT) who was requesting State Trooper assistance on a traffic stop along I-40 Westbound at the 36th Milepost, since the suspects vehicle had its windows covered in a layer of Black Paint.
At approximately 10:35 AM ASP Trooper James Ray was dispatched to assist the Highway Patrol Officer on his traffic stop.
Upon his arrival and passenger side approach of the vehicle, the driver identified as Brian Starnes 31, of North Carolina, accelerated his vehicle, and re-entered traffic, as the Trooper ran to his vehicle he slipped in the wet grass and fell. Both Trooper Ray and the Highway Patrol Officer pursued the vehicle for several miles before Trooper Ray executed a Pursuit Intervention Technique and forced the vehicle off of the roadway.
The suspect BRIAN STARNES re-gained control of his vehicle and re-entered the interstate. However this time he was traveling EAST in the WEST Bound lanes.
The Highway Officer followed STARNES down the interstate. While Trooper Ray continued straight and attempted to turn around in designated areas, which he did. After several attempts to stop the vehicle, and a chase down the interstate driving the wrong way. Trooper Ray positioned his vehicle head-on in front of the fleeing STARNES in hopes he would stop his vehicle. He did not. Trooper Ray was faced with the split second choice to either end the pursuit, or let it continue. And with that being known, in order to protect civilians behind him, Trooper James Ray placed his vehicle directly infront of STARNES and the two collided head on, ending the pursuit.
FIRE/EMS were dispatched to the scene were both the Trooper and the suspect were cleared of any life threatening injuries.
Starnes did initially resist Troopers attempting to take him into custody, however he was eventually arrested and is incarcerated in the Franklin County Detention Center.
Starnes was charged with the following:
1. Felony Fleeing
2. Aggravated Assault on a Law Enforcement Officer
3. Driving with a Suspended License
4. Refusal to Submit to Arrest
ALSO, the footage from the secondary vehicle is from the patrol car of ASP Trooper Kevin Yates who was dispatched to assist in the pursuit. However he spent the entire time responding to the area, and made it on scene seconds after the crash had occurred.

Do i get a reward from the youtube royalties on this video seeing that it was me in the video sir?? This is the guy that was in the high speed chase that day 🤷. Over 9,000,000 views😳😳🤔🤔. Know yall got paid off First off .... That was me in this video. Second off ...the police all the time make the lower classes lives harder than what they already are and every day citizens also. When u get pulled over , get those tickets. ,get criminal charges etc etc etc. Yeah mind u if ur not doing wrong blah blah blah. But this was during the post covid pandemic.i had alot of things going on that caused me to have a mental break down ... I had lost my cdl class A license , my home , my cars. , my everything within 2 yr time during covid pandemic. And during the time. The police would keep pulling me over for no insurance and revolked license over and over til it came a criminal case. Made bond and then they try to arrest me again the same day in Nc so i took off in a chase thru Nc also. When i was stopped here. I was at a rest area sleeping from being tired of driving from Nc to atlanta ... Back to nc .. then got on i40 and was headed to california. I stopped here in ozark Arkansas and was woke up to state troopers at my window. I didnt think and reacted. Also id like to say i suffer from severe ptsd from having adverse childhood traumas thats caused 98% of my problem with authority and all my drug problems and alot of my criminal record. So ppl please know what the fuk ur talking about b4 u just open ya mouths and speak. 🤷. All good though. Not making excuses either ... Just a reality that made sense and took me 30yrs to come across by a phycatrists evaluations. P. S i wasnt gonna hurt anybody in this chase. I can drive 85,000lb semi trucks , sports cars , street bikes and anything with wheels the officer actually was in the progress of creating a wreck and disaster on the road and dont forget how he caused a head on collision with me that coudve killed us both. Notice how the officer is a fresh rookie and not even 21yrs old. 💯💯. i apoligize for what happened. But it happened and it didnt have to go to that if your laws in Arkansas were the same as other states like Nc. Do not chase an individual and pit them at over a 100mph and ram their car head on either. I was almost killed twice in this pursuit. Amd notice all inhad was a suspended license. That shouldnlet you know something wasnt right. ... I wouldnt do all of that under normal circumstances of just having a suspended license!!! Really though. ... Whats up with the rewards on this thing ?? I deserve something. 💯. And im on parole for 10 years and did over 2 yrs in the penetintiary at super max varner unit in arkansas just for this chase. Smh. 🙁

[@BryanStarnes]

Ok so heres the deal buddy. I want from this video or im bringing it down off youtube completely. There is enough( what youtubes standards and policies consider to be hate speeches and hate toward me the driver of this vehicle ) to vring the whole channel down. You only need 3 strikes in 90 days. So ... Contact me asap if you want to keep collecting on this video. Becasue honestly id love for it to come down. You know nobody considers what i was going thru at the time , nobody cares that i have ptsd traumas , that i have 3 kids , that inhad lost my whole life right before this happened. None of that ... And all the police wanted to do was make my situation worse. By more criminal charges , more tickets , tow my only other car i owned , take me to jail. Etc etc etc. You have 24 hrs to make this right or your channel is coming down. Its only fair

You should be charged for very cent you cost the taxpayers that day and be barred from receiving any possible benefits that rewards you.

I am glad to be informed that there was no serious injuries, or fatalities. Many times when my husband would come home and inform me on chase pursuits he had enountered that day as being a Police Officer. I loved him very much, i felt as ease when opened up, and informed me of his day. Then there were days he was a hero to someone either it would be delivering a baby, or rescueing a dog off the freeway. Few years ago, after my husband retired, he passed away. There's never a day that goes buy every time I would roll over on my left side, and look at his pillow and imagine his smiling face and he would tell me those heroic stories on how he stopped the crook and rescue a child to deliver a baby. I miss him.

[@David-yh4wz]

@@nevadaboy9769 The guy fled a traffic stop and his driving put the public in danger. Just an FYI, the legal tint limit in NC is 35% and this idiot had his windows painted black. So the window blackout was certainly illegal enough in both AR and NC to justify the stop. The felony fleeing at a high rate of speed is also enough to justify the PIT attempt. That he had reckless disregard for the safety of the public was demonstrated even further by continuing to flee opposite the flow of traffic on a 70 mph Interstate. If he crashed out at 70 in an offset head-on TC involving the general public, that would result in a closing rate of ~140 mph and would almost certainly have resulted in fatalities regardless of the crumple zone and airbags in the vehicles. If he had hit and killed someone you care for, your story would likely be far different. Lastly, if he hadn't fled, he wouldn't have been chased down and might have gotten off with a ticket for DWLSR. He chose to flee, instead, turning a crappy day for him into multiple felony charges. *reckless FTFY

Trooper Ray, 25, of Franklin County, is a four year veteran of the Arkansas State Police, assigned to the Highway Patrol Division, Troop H, located in Fort Smith. During his 4 year tenure with the agency, the Trooper has received multiple commendations, one of which is being named the National Trooper of the Year 2021, by the American Association of State Troopers. He also, during his career which is just taking flight, has had the privilege of never receiving a single write up, or complaint. Trooper Ray has been described by both civilians and superiors as Empathetic, Selfless, Brave, and Highly Educated/Well Versed on his duties. Trooper Ray had been said to set the standard, on which all Law Enforcement Members and Agencies, across the country should be held too.

Hey fuck u bitch. First off .... That was me in this video. Second off ... Fuck tha police !!! With a passion. 💯. They make the lower classes lives harder than what they already are and every day citizens also. When u get pulled over , get those tickets. ,get criminal charges etc etc etc. Yeah mind u if ur not doing wrong blah blah blah. But this was during the post covid pandemic. I had lost my cdl class A license , my home , my cars. , my everything within 2 yr time during covid pandemic. And during the time. The police would keep pulling me over for no insurance and revolked license over and over til it came a criminal case. Made bond and then they try to arrest me again the same day in Nc so i took off in a chase thru Nc also. When i was stopped here. I was at a rest area sleeping from being tired of driving from Nc to atlanta ... Back to nc .. then got on i40 and was headed to california. I stopped here in ozark Arkansas and was woke up to state troopers at my window. I didnt think and reacted. Also id like to say i suffer from severe ptsd from having adverse childhood traumas thats caused 98% of my problem with authority and all my drug problems and alot of my criminal record. So ppl please know what the fuk ur talking about b4 u just open ya mouths and speak. 🤷. All good though. Not making excuses either ... Just a reality that made sense and took me 30yrs to come across by a phycatrists evaluations. P. S i wasnt gonna hurt anybody in this chase. I can drive 85,000lb semi trucks , sports cars , street bikes and anything with wheels the officer actually was in the progress of creating a wreck and disaster on the road and dont forget how he caused a head on collision with me that coudve killed us both.

Thankful for Troopers like this!! We have some great ones here in Michigan!! Glad you are OK Trooper Ray!!

This trooper has so much patience. You can definitely tell alot about a person from the way they drive. Ty for your service

Atta boy!

God Bless You Trooper Ray, you are an outstanding officer. You might not have been hurting the first day but I would bet you would be for the next week or so. My prayers are with you and your family for a full recovery and that the suspect is spending many years in prison.

[@wisdomrules8474]

That is one bad-ass Trooper. Very courageous and well timed. God bless him. 👏👏👏

[@devonnep.7126]

God bless all of our law enforcement men and women,,who deserve so much more respect. Glad Trooper Ray is ok. What a brave thing he did, putting his own life in danger.

[@juanitagragg2394]

Amazing bravery !! Putting your life on the line for another is the up most bravest act that a person can do ! No greater love !! GOD was watching over this trooper for sure. So happy he was ok.

[@barstad-9591]

I really liked how LEOs from the various agencies gathered around the trooper who apparently had the wind knocked out of him. Nice to see that kind of interagency cooperation and concern. Thank you to all law enforcement officers.

Even the Uvalde cops?

[@Ray56z]

@@voiceofreason7558 You mean the Cincinnati shooter that campaigned for bernie the commie? Or the vegas shooter that was a registered dem and donated to f'ing dems? Or the church shooter in Texas that was a registered dem in Colorado before moving back to Texas? How many more, because most of these mass shooters including Uvalde were registered dems, raised in dem households, or left manifestos about being leftys-like the Texas Walmart shooter of immigrants, loved dems, hated Trump. Get under your bed and hold your breath bitch.

Respect for these troopers. I would never be able to keep my cool and not beat that dudes ass or pinch the crap out of him or something! I hope the trooper is really ok and that his fellow officers are all ok. They really showed their devotion to their comrade. As for the creep that thought he could get away, I hope he goes to prison for a very long time!!
