Deputies pursuing driver who won't stop
Submitted by Billie Owens on August 3, 2012 - 1:10pm
A motorist is failing to stop for law enforcement, which has been trying to get him to pull over for several miles on different roadways. The speed is slow. He's northbound on Swamp Road. The car the guy's driving has a stolen plate.
UPDATE 1:12 p.m.: The older-model Ford truck has a red and silver tailgate. The driver is a white male with a baseball cap worn backward. There's no front license plate and one of the front tires "looks like it's gonna blow." Monroe County authorities have been notified.
UPDATE 1:16 p.m.: Now the pursuit is eastbound on Reed Road. State Troopers are also responding.
UPDATE 1:17 p.m.: The truck drove onto a laneway east of Root Road and the subject is now in custody.

I was thinking O.J. as I was typing. But there'll never be another pursuit quite like that one.

You can beat a police car, but you can't beat a Motorola.
Two trooper Escalades (or similar) just blew through the center of Byron, one went airborne going through the traffic light intersection.
