00:00Which gate is it?
00:01While investigating a hit-and-run crash, an officer hears a nearby car rapidly accelerating.
00:09You, stop, stop, stop!
00:12Instead of slowing down, the driver of the Mustang GT stomps on the gas and speeds off.
00:19Okay.
00:20The pissed-off cop quickly hops into his car, but is too slow to catch up with the Formula One wannabe,
00:26so he canvases nearby neighborhoods until, finally, Lady Luck intervenes.
00:40Do you guys know his white Mustang this is?
00:48Uh, I want her to come out.
00:50Yeah, can you have him step out?
00:52Hello.
00:52Hi.
00:54Do I look familiar?
00:56Kind of.
00:58Yeah, I know.
00:59Yeah.
01:00Turn around and put your hands behind your back.
01:02You're under arrest for fleeing and alluding law enforcement.
01:05What?
01:05I walked out, flagged you down, told you to stop, and you rapidly accelerated away from me.
01:09What?
01:10Yes, ma'am.
01:11Wait.
01:11It's all on body cam.
01:12Yes, you just...
01:13Nope, I walked out of the road and was telling you to stop.
01:15You walked out on the road.
01:17Correct, and I was telling you to stop.
01:18It's all on body cam.
01:19You're under arrest for fleeing and alluding law enforcement.
01:21Come here.
01:22Can I just call her mom?
01:24Yeah, you can call her mom.
01:25Is that on her phone right there?
01:26I am a law enforcement officer, fully uniform, telling you to stop because you're passing
01:31all those cars in a double yellow.
01:32I passed one car.
01:33No, you passed multiple.
01:34I passed one car.
01:35I passed one car.
01:35It doesn't matter.
01:36You still fled law enforcement.
01:38And then you rapidly accelerated as you went by me.
01:40You didn't stop, didn't do anything.
01:41Didn't even hit the brakes.
01:42Do you want help with that search?
01:43No, I was going to see them at a close.
01:45No, you weren't.
01:46Can I talk to someone else?
01:48It was just me there.
01:49I don't know who you want to talk to.
01:51Who do you want to talk to?
01:53Maybe your stupid medicine?
01:54Yeah, he's on his way.
01:55You're more than welcome to.
01:56That's why you don't leave law enforcement.
01:58Go ahead and sit down for me.
02:02Do you have anything on you?
02:02Because I have a female that's going to come search you.
02:04Oh, no.
02:05Okay.
02:07Telling it?
02:08Huh?
02:08Telling it?
02:09Oh, yeah.
02:10Yeah.
02:10So, yeah, no, I literally was...
02:12I hear her car accelerating rapidly.
02:16So I look, and she's in the middle of passing vehicles, coming back over.
02:20I'm in the road, hands up, telling her to stop.
02:22Clearly look like a law enforcement officer.
02:25No brakes, no lights, nothing.
02:26She just keeps going, guns it.
02:28So that's flinging and eluding all day long.
02:31Can we go to court for this?
02:34Absolutely.
02:34You're going to be going to court no matter what.
02:37And you said you have it on dash cam?
02:39I have it on body cam.
02:40Okay.
02:40Even better, because I was right there.
02:41Oh, okay.
02:43So, what's your name?
02:45This is the next ridiculous thing ever.
02:47I know, I agree.
02:48Fling law enforcement is pretty ridiculous.
02:51I absolutely agree.
02:53And I'm also towing your car and putting it on a 30-day hold.
02:55So, just letting you know.
02:59They're arresting me for flinging and eluding.
03:01I passed on a double line.
03:03And then an officer came.
03:05I said, I'm getting arrested because an officer said I was fleeing and eluding.
03:11I was driving on.
03:14He came out and ran in front of, like, he half ran in front of my, like, he didn't even fully run in front of my car.
03:20And then, um, now I'm getting arrested for it because I parked in because he said I was fleeing.
03:27But he wasn't even behind me with lights on or anything.
03:29Doesn't matter.
03:29Don't need to be.
03:30I absolutely don't need to have, like, sirens activated.
03:33I'm a fully uniformed law enforcement officer telling you to stop.
03:35Did you have your laptop in there?
03:37I did.
03:39I don't know.
03:40Can I talk to him?
03:40Yeah.
03:41Officer Riera.
03:41Okay.
03:43Hey there.
03:43It's Officer Riera at New Somerville Beach Police Department.
03:46What officer who?
03:47Officer Riera with the New Somerville Beach Police Department.
03:49Hey, Riera.
03:50How are you doing?
03:50Good, good.
03:51So, literally, I'm in the middle of the road.
03:55I'm a fully uniformed police officer telling her to stop.
03:57Not only does she not even apply the brakes, she rapidly accelerates away from me to the point where I have to run, jump in my car,
04:03which was parked several hundred feet away because I was investigating a hit-and-run crash, and now all of a sudden she's gone nowhere.
04:10So, then I obviously find the car and make contact with her.
04:13So, I don't need to have lights and sirens on behind her or anything like that.
04:16I'm a fully uniformed police officer.
04:18I was given clear hand signals to stop, and I have a witness who was the victim of my hit-and-run crash who watched the entire thing.
04:25So, you know, of course, that meets statute requirements for fleeing and eluding.
04:30I don't mean to be a jerk about it or anything like that, but that's where we're at, okay?
04:37How far did she go from when you tried to gesture her to stop?
04:40Over a mile.
04:41So, she didn't try to pull off the road down the street, nothing like that.
04:48Was she able to see her?
04:50Oh, yeah.
04:51I am in a...
04:53She just told me I saw him in my uniform, so that's all I need.
04:57Like, because, and I know she saw me because I was about in the middle of the road to where she would, before she would run me over.
05:03So, I didn't want to get ran over because she was already doing 65 plus.
05:07So, you know, I have everything I need for fleeing and eluding.
05:10It is what it is.
05:11So, she can take it to court.
05:12It's going to go to court no matter what, but that's what I have.
05:15It meets statute requirements.
05:18That's what we're doing, okay?
05:20Okay.
05:21Can you put her back on the phone?
05:22Yeah, you're on speaker.
05:23Hey.
05:23So, you'll probably be in jail for the weekend then.
05:34Yeah, okay.
05:36Because, uh, you're not going to get out right away.
05:41Why were you going that fast down the street?
05:44I passed one car.
05:45I passed one car because he was going, like, 30, and I passed him.
05:49So, this is my daughter's plan.
05:53So, why didn't you pull over at the time when he waved you down the stop?
05:57Why didn't you stop?
06:00Because it wasn't like he was, I didn't even, I really didn't even know.
06:04I just saw a person in white and black and then.
06:06Doing this.
06:07So, he had one hand out and it wasn't like he was in front of my car like that.
06:11He was just, he, like, literally was from the side, like, completely the side.
06:15I wasn't going 60.
06:17That's a hearsay.
06:19I was not going 60.
06:20From 30 to 60, I can't just do that when I'm in the other line, going over to the other side.
06:28He didn't.
06:30He didn't.
06:30He came over and found my car.
06:32It's all on body cam, sir.
06:34I was almost in the roadway.
06:35The reason I didn't go all the way in the roadway is because she was going so fast I didn't want to get hit by her.
06:39Because, obviously, I could see that she was not slowing down.
06:41It's just the, what he thinks.
06:45Okay.
06:46You're being so cocky.
06:47I'm actually an instructor for speed measurement, so, smart.
06:50I'm not laughing.
06:51I wouldn't be laughing.
06:52It's a felony.
06:53You committed a felony.
06:54Don't laugh at that.
06:55Yeah, I mean, you're being cocky.
06:58You're not even being polite.
06:59You're not even using manners.
07:00Yeah, this has been her the entire time, sir.
07:03I know.
07:03That's what I don't get with her.
07:05It's just total ridiculous.
07:06So, you don't understand what you just did.
07:09I do.
07:09Oh, you do, do you?
07:13Really?
07:14Like, how do you understand what you're doing?
07:16Because you're being a smartass the whole time to me, too.
07:19So, I can only imagine how you're speaking to an officer.
07:23It's all on body cam.
07:24I've been trying to be respectful to her, but...
07:26Right.
07:26I don't get it.
07:27Like, you just totally just screwed yourself inside and out for what you just did.
07:34Big time.
07:34Because now your car is going to get towed to the impound.
07:36You've got to pay to get that out, too, now.
07:38Yeah, there's going to be a 30-day hold on it.
07:42There's going to be a 30-day hold on it.
07:43So, your nursing stuff is going to be screwed up now, too, because you don't have no damn manners.
07:50And you know what?
07:51It's going to take something like this to fuck you up now, and now you're done, because you're so goddamn arrogant and cocky the whole damn time.
08:00So, when you can't talk to the officer, normally, you had to be a real jerk, didn't you?
08:05I know you can't bullshit me.
08:07He's got the body cam on.
08:09So, you just totally screwed your whole shit up.
08:12Nursing degree, everything.
08:13You just did it because you're being invincible.
08:18But guess what?
08:18You're going to spend the weekend in jail, and you'll see how invincible you are.
08:22You know what?
08:23It might teach you a lesson now, maybe.
08:25You know?
08:27Because you just don't listen.
08:29Don't listen.
08:31So, we're talking to this body called, okay?
08:34Did you hear it, Dad?
08:35Yes, sir.
08:36All right, so when you get to jail, you get one phone call.
08:40Just follow the instructions.
08:42So, you better figure out who you're going to call, you know, to get you out of jail.
08:49So, when you call your mom and start bitching at her and stuff, she's going to make you sit.
08:54You call me, I'll make you ass sit, too, because I'm not putting up with this shit.
08:59You know?
09:00You got an attitude.
09:01It's going to change.
09:02It's going to change.
09:04It's ridiculous.
09:05So, this might be your game changer.
09:07You know?
09:08You could have been probably polite to the officer from the get-go, and you probably wouldn't be in the situation you are right now.
09:14And I bet if you ask the officer that, your cockiness probably will put you in that position right there.
09:22I guarantee you.
09:25All right.
09:25She's getting searched right now by a female deputy.
09:28Do you have anything else for her?
09:29If not, we're going to load her up and do some paperwork, okay?
09:32Okay.
09:32Thank you, sir.
09:33Yes, sir.
09:33No problem.
09:35Do I put my shoes back on, or just...
09:37Do you want them back on?
09:41If that's what I'm saying, if your mom can bail you out now, or otherwise, you will sit there until Monday.
09:47I've got to calculate it, but it'll probably be like 2,500.
09:51Okay.
09:51Do you have an older brother?
09:53Yeah.
09:54Yeah.
09:56I know him very well, yep.
09:58He's in, what, the Air Force?
10:00Did you go to high school?
10:02Yeah, we have.
10:03It's a couple of times.
10:04I'll just...
10:05Actually, so you got jewelry on.
10:09Do you want to leave that with them and not bring it into the jail, like the earrings and stuff and your necklace?
10:13Can I take it out?
10:14Yeah.
10:16So if I uncuff you, do I have to take it out?
10:18You're not doing anything?
10:19All right.
10:21This is me being very nice by the way, so...
10:24Oh, Mom.
10:25Yeah, she...
10:26If we have a problem, I'm going to let her talk to you.
10:28I'm getting arrested because I've seen an officer.
10:30She's going to need somebody to post them.
10:37Anything else, any other jewelry?
10:39It's going to be 10% or probably 2,500.
10:42Okay.
10:43I'll do it.
10:44Have you ever been arrested before for anything?
10:48All right.
10:50All right.
10:52Bye, Mom.
10:54It's not fun.
10:56Be prepared.
10:56Be stretched.
10:57You take everything off, and you bend over.
11:04It's off.
11:05And now that you know that, if you do have anything on you and you introduce it to the branch of the jail, it's a felony, okay?
11:11All right.
11:11I'm just...
11:11Oh, yeah.
11:12I tell everybody I arrest them.
11:15I'm going to cuff her up front since she's...
11:17It seems like Dad's kind of talked a little bit of sense into her.
11:22Are you good with that?
11:23Are you good with that?
11:25No.
11:26Are you good with that, though, since she'll be in your car?
11:29Yeah.
11:29And is your guys' cool car available or no?
11:32No.
11:33Okay.
11:36It won't take you that long, though.
11:39Oh, sorry.
11:39It shouldn't take that long.
11:42No, it shouldn't take that long.
11:43I mean, I know how Jenkins is, though.
11:46He's going to want me to transfer my own arrest.
11:49Yeah, sorry.
11:50It's all on BodyCamp 2 on the previous Signal 3, so it's like...
11:55Or did I just...
11:55That's mine.
11:57This is mine.
11:58Oh, he already has your phone, or did he?
12:00Yeah, we already have it, because she wanted to take that.
12:03Yeah.
12:04Yeah.
12:04All right, good.
12:05Just go ahead and put your hands like this together.
12:07Up front.
12:07There you go.
12:08Just a little bit further out.
12:10You're good.
12:10I'm being very nice.
12:21I mean, I don't think it would be too big of an issue.
12:27I'm double-locking it.
12:28That way, they don't stomp down here real quick.
12:33We're going to go to his vehicle right here, okay?
12:35This one right here.
12:40Okay, I don't want you to sit on that seat, but I'm just going to buckle you in.
12:57Um...
12:58You have enough EC?
13:03Oh, yeah, it's cold by the way.
13:04What's your name?
13:06My name is Officer Gott.
13:08Nice to meet you.
13:09Oh, not really good.
13:12How long have you been a police officer?
13:14Uh, a little, almost 11 years.
13:17Oh, wow.
13:18Do you like it?
13:19Oh, I absolutely love it.
13:21I mean, if I didn't like it, I wouldn't be, I wouldn't be doing it for 11 years.
13:26How long do you think I'll be there for?
13:28Well, it depends.
13:29I'm pretty sure that it's a third-degree felony, so you'll have a bond.
13:33So, a couple hours, then you'll be able to bond out.
13:37Oh, okay.
13:37Go ahead and step out.
13:47Go ahead and step out.
13:48We're going to go on the right side of this car.
13:52I'm just saying, tell you, I'm just going to drive you over here.
14:07What?
14:08She literally admitted to the entire thing.
14:12Like, I've known the family for a long time.
14:14I played football with her older brother.
14:16Yep, I know your dad, I know your brother, I'm very well.
14:19Did you play baseball or, like, football with them?
14:20I played football with them for a long time.
14:22Yeah.
14:23I follow them on Facebook.
14:25Yeah.
14:25If the crime that I'm talking with wasn't a felony, I could have just wrote you a ticket and be done with it.
14:30But, unfortunately, since it's a felony, no matter what, I have to make a physical arrest.
14:35You have, like, zero criminal history, right?
14:37Yeah.
14:38I mean, one time I shoplifted when I was 16, but I don't think it's on there.
14:43Did they charge you with anything or no?
14:45No.
14:46Can this get expunged or anything?
14:49I mean, potentially, if you have no criminal history or anything like that.
14:53Yeah.
14:53You know, they might work with you.
14:56Do you want the windows up like that or down like that?
14:58It's fine like that.
14:59It's fine like that.
15:01The camera's kind of covered by that thing.
15:03I don't know if that matters.
15:05Well, if it makes it any better, that was my captain texting me.
15:09I'm probably getting in trouble because of how fast I was going looking for you.
15:12Oh.
15:14Because by the time I got back into my car to go after you, you were so far gone.
15:19I was lights and sirens.
15:20I was doing over 100.
15:21So I'm probably getting in trouble for that now.
15:24So if that makes you feel any better.
15:29Do you have any extra waters?
15:31No, I don't have a pack of water.
15:32I had a couple bottles, but I don't have any more.
15:34I have a Red Bull if she wants one.
15:36You want a Red Bull?
15:37Please.
15:38She said please.
15:40You ain't going to get all hopped up on Red Bull, right?
15:42No.
15:43You're all weird?
15:43Okay.
15:43I just need something.
15:45I got you.
15:46So like I said, I'm only writing you the civil traffic, just passing or no passing zone.
15:52Okay.
15:52Instead of anything else criminal.
15:54Okay?
15:56I don't think I was speeding.
15:57I mean, I wasn't looking down.
15:59Listen, I'm not charging you with any speed or anything like that, but you were definitely...
16:03I visually estimated you at about 60.
16:06Easily.
16:07What's the speed limit on that, Red?
16:0840.
16:09Um...
