Trooper's Report:

On June 5, 2021 at 0048 hours, I got a notification on the Savannah Police Department FLOCK camera system of a wanted vehicle in the Westlake apartment area. The vehicle had fled from several Savannah Police Traffic stops throughout the week. I also recalled getting a BOLO for the vehicle through GSP Troop I communications dispatch. I retrieved the email and confirmed it was, in fact, the same vehicle. The vehicle is described as a black Dodge charger. After entering the apartment complex, I observe the vehicle traveling east on Westlake Ave. I got behind the vehicle and confirmed it was the same vehicle. I activated my emergency equipment as the vehicle turned north on ACL Blvd. The driver ignored my visual, an audible signal to stop, initiating a pursuit. I immediately notify GSP troop I communications that I was in an active pursuit.

The pursuit continued north on ACL Boulevard to Staley Avenue, where the driver disregarded the stop sign and continue north. Once you cross Staley Avenue, the roadway becomes Liberty Parkway. The suspect continued to flee north on Liberty Parkway at speeds over 100 mph in a posted 35 mph zone. While fleeing, the driver failed to maintain his lane by driving over the center lane divider several times. The driver then turned west on Upson Street and continue to flee. Upson Street is a dead end. Once the suspect made it to the end of the road, he began to turn around. I attempted to block his path, but he was able to get around me and continue to flee east on Upson Street. The suspect then turned north on Liberty Parkway disregarding the stop sign at the intersection. Once on Liberty Parkway, the suspect reached speeds of over 100 mph as he approached the traffic signal at Mills B. Lane. The suspectdisregarded the red traffic signal and continued north on Liberty Parkway. After clearing the
intersection, I continued to pursue the vehicle. The suspect continued to flee north on Liberty
Parkway to Ogeechee Road, where the driver disregarded the stop sign, and turned north on
Ogeechee Road.
The pursuit continued north on Ogeechee Road at speeds over 125 mph in a posted 35
mph zone. The suspect then attempted to turn east on Sadler Street. While attempting to
negotiate the turn, the suspect jumped the north curb, ran off the roadway briefly. The suspect
then re-entered the roadway, narrowly missing a parked vehicle, and continued to flee east on
Sadler Street. Once on Sadler Street, the suspect made an almost immediate turn east on W
42nd Street. The suspect was traveling too fast to safely negotiate the turn and ran off the
south side of the roadway. The vehicle traveled off the roadway for several feet, striking a
speed limit sign, then re-entered W 42nd Street and continued to flee. The pursuit continued
east on W 42nd Street to Hopkins Street, where the driver disregarded the stop sign, and
continued to flee east. While fleeing east on W 42nd Street, the suspect almost struck several
parked vehicles. The suspect then turned south on Bulloch Street, then immediately turned
east on Victory Drive.
The pursuit continued east on Victory Drive to Burroughs Street, where the driver turned
north. Once on Burroughs Street, the suspect's vehicle began to fish tale. While the suspect
was beginning to lose control, a Savannah Police vehicle with all emergency equipment
activated turned south on Burroughs Street. The Savannah Police vehicle immediately stopped
when the suspect vehicle served towards their direction. The suspect temporarily regained
control of the vehicle and swerved to the right to attempt to avoid a collision with the Savannah
vehicle. The suspect was unable to avoid a collision and struck the driver's side front bumper
of the police vehicle. The suspect then ran off the roadway and struck a house. This
essentially stopped the pursuit.
I exited my vehicle, drew my department issued firearm, and gave the suspect loud
verbal commands to surrender. The suspect ignored these commands, exited his vehicle and
fled east on W 42nd Street. The suspect appeared to be unarmed so I holstered my handgun
and drew my Taser. Once within range, I successfully deployed my Taser for (1) 5 second
cycle. After utilizing my Taser, the suspect fell to the ground and surrendered. With the help
SPD Ofc. Smith, the suspect was apprehended without further incident.
While walking the suspect to my patrol vehicle, I could smell a strong odor of an alcoholic
beverage coming from his breath. I also noticed his speech was mumbled. The suspect was then searched and secured in the rear of my patrol vehicle.
