Just went to commercial. He was on city/suburb streets, but is now on the interstate. I don't think this will end well.

It's over. CHP on bike cut him off, pulled his sidearm and the guy stopped and surrendered.

Watching that chase made my stomach turn.

Not on hlntv.com yet.

CHP take-down - yet another reason to wear gear.

I agree that he pussed out but... it's a no win scenario (unless you're Cap'n Kirk)

Like the saying goes...

You can beat his motor but you can't beat his Motorola.

Then he started kicking the ground like a 4 year old throwing a tantrum when he was being cuffed. Serious, serious fail.

Stunting or speeding probably.

Although that's a total guess.

I would say that was more do to the officer trying to relocate his shoulder by placing the guys hand on the back of his head in the wrong direction. Officer was clearly venting some frustrations on a complient prisoner at that point. But hey, you run from the law you have to expect some rough treatment once you're caught.
