Dodge Charger Scat Pack Evades Four Police Chases But is Finally Apprehended on the Fifth Attempt

There are some individuals who are simply unable to discern when to quit and this includes both artists and suspects. In this particular account, the suspect in question managed to successfully evade the authorities on four separate occasions before ultimately being apprehended. Unfortunately, this behavior resulted in a trail of devastation, including a law enforcement officer colliding with an unwitting driver on the roadway.

On the evening of July 4th, police in Arkansas pursued a Dodge Charger Scat Pack driver who fled from a traffic stop. The chase quickly escalated with speeds reaching 135 mph (217 km/h) on the highway. Both the suspect and the pursuing officer narrowly avoided collisions. After about four minutes into the chase, the Dodge had gained a significant lead over the officers. Unfortunately, the lead officer experienced a tire blowout, which ultimately ended his involvement in the pursuit.

The suspect is spotted by the following officers who immediately catch up to him. However, this time, the suspect takes an exit from the highway and gains some distance by passing on the shoulder. The officers wisely slow down to prevent any accidents at multiple intersections, but unfortunately, the Charger manages to escape. The efforts made by the officers to avoid any mishap seem to be in vain as the suspect disappears into thin air in no time.

As the suspect flees, a third officer named Hunter Glover pursues him down the road. However, the chase is abruptly cut short when Glover collides with an innocent motorist at an alarming speed of 73 mph (117 km/h). Shockingly, it seems that Glover made little to no effort to prevent the accident. Instead of immediately seeking help for the injured bystanders, Glover prioritizes capturing the suspect by shouting, “I’m crashed out, go get him!” Regrettably, the other vehicle involved in the collision ends up overturned in a ditch.

Officers caught sight of the Charger again almost 90 minutes later and immediately gave chase. This time, they attempted a PIT maneuver, but the skilled driver managed to evade the tactic by expertly performing some countersteer, leaving the trooper’s Charger disabled instead. The car was eventually spotted by a fifth officer, who successfully performed a PIT maneuver, leading to a foot chase.

In the end, ASP successfully apprehends Tylawrence Thomas, a 20-year-old suspect, and accuses him of multiple crimes, including theft by receiving, battery in the second degree, fleeing on foot, criminal use of a prohibited weapon, committing a crime with a machine gun, speeding over 15 mph, reckless driving, improper display of a license plate, first-degree battery, felony fleeing with serious physical injury, felony fleeing with a substantial danger of death, and a seatbelt violation.
