00:10Summers are brutal with the heat.
00:13It'll melt your shoes, your skin, it'll tear you up for sure.
00:18If it's too hot outside, the bad guys don't want to go out and commit crimes.
00:22When the night time comes, the freaks come out.
00:26Put your pants off!
00:28When that's undone, people think they can hide the bad stuff in the dark.
00:31This is the I don't believe in Facebook.
00:34One team, one family.
00:37We always pull together.
00:39Get a bunch of back!
00:41What the f*** am I in handcuffs for?
00:45It's very dangerous.
00:46Backup isn't always closed.
00:50It's not an emergency.
00:52You're gonna kill me.
00:54Assaults, robberies, shootings.
00:57It's lawless out here.
00:58It's gonna get hot tonight.
01:00A little bit of spice is always good.
01:01Stop having sex.
01:02Put your jeans on.
01:04Be in the wild, wild west, Tucson.
01:07It's the witching hour.
01:08Don't tap out on us yet, okay?
01:31Usual common practice for me, I like to just check license plates.
01:34You'll never know if, uh, you'll end up finding something weird.
01:39So, this guy's plate is showing suspended.
01:45So, that is definitely a violation.
01:47I'm just gonna pull him over right now.
01:52He's just swerved into a parking lot here.
02:00Hi, so I'm Deputy Poole with the, uh, Sheriff's Department.
02:03Always the way I'm talking to you right now is because, uh,
02:05the license plate that you have on the back is telling me
02:07that the, uh, plate is suspended for some reason.
02:09Is it?
02:10Do you have your license, registration?
02:11Hopefully I lost people.
02:13Okay.
02:14How are you doing?
02:15Hey, doing all right.
02:17Sun's down, it's getting cooler, so, you know,
02:19it puts me, it puts me in a good mood, okay?
02:21But what is your name, sir?
02:24Any alcohol, any drugs, or anything else, man?
02:26All right.
02:29All right, we're just gonna walk right here.
02:31All right, might I just pass you down real quick
02:32and make sure you don't have anything, okay?
02:34It's the Wild West, man.
02:34I can never tell nowadays, okay?
02:36So, I'll have you just stand right here facing me, okay?
02:39So, important things to remember for this test,
02:40make sure you watch your foot at all times.
02:42Ready?
02:42Go ahead and begin.
02:45Watch your foot.
02:50Go ahead and stop.
02:52It's hard.
02:53It's hard to keep your balance like that, man.
02:56Close your eyes.
02:58And start.
03:00He performed very poorly
03:01on every sobriety test that I gave him.
03:03I observed that he's sweating profusely,
03:06his pupils are dilated,
03:07his eyes are watery, red and bloodshot.
03:10The impairment that I'm seeing tonight,
03:11I don't suspect is as a result of alcohol.
03:14I suspect it's because of drugs.
03:17Could you just remind me of your name one more time?
03:21Okay, what's the last four of you social?
03:22Honestly, I don't know in my memory.
03:24How old are you?
03:2637.
03:27And you don't know your social?
03:29Not my memory.
03:30I'm sorry, man.
03:31All right.
03:32Go ahead and turn around and put your hands on your back for me.
03:38You are lying to me, you know that?
03:42How come you're not telling me who you really are?
03:46So, yeah, let's just pretend that I know who you really are.
03:50Okay?
03:51So, in that reality,
03:52how come you don't want to tell me your real name?
03:54Because I have a warrant.
03:55Okay.
03:56Well, now let's be honest with each other, okay?
03:57What's your real first and last name?
04:00Okay.
04:01So, what's your warrant for?
04:04Um...
04:06Okay.
04:07I knew you were lying to me from the get-go, man.
04:09Because you know the real was just in jail recently?
04:13Okay.
04:14Are you really?
04:15Okay.
04:17So, what was your reason for taking his identity?
04:20Were you trying to get out of trouble?
04:22You understand how serious of a crime it is
04:24to take somebody's identity to avoid jail time?
04:27Okay.
04:28Well, you know now.
04:29Okay.
04:29How much coke have you done today?
04:33I just came from the...
04:34Okay.
04:35You're sweating profusely right now.
04:37Your eyes and your performance and everything else
04:39is telling me something different, okay?
04:41I love it.
04:42All right.
04:42I was just nervous.
04:43I'm nervous.
04:43I just didn't want to go to jail.
04:45Okay.
04:45Well, if you told me your real name...
04:47Well, we probably would have had, like, a different outcome.
04:50You understand that?
04:52Okay.
04:53Any drugs, anything I'm going to find on you?
04:55Okay.
04:56How much weed have you smoked today?
04:57I haven't smoked.
04:59Okay.
04:59But you just happen to have this in your pocket
05:00just for giggles then?
05:02It's a weed, babe.
05:05When I'm checking his license right now,
05:07it's telling me that his license status
05:09is even suspended too
05:11because of a previous DUI.
05:14At this point in time, okay,
05:15you are under arrest at least for, you know,
05:17failing to provide me a truthful name, okay?
05:18As well as assuming the identity of another person, okay?
05:20Okay.
05:22100%, yeah.
05:22That's what happens when you lie to cops.
05:23You go to jail.
05:25See, because, like,
05:26the biggest thing is you don't have that big a scar
05:28like your brother has right here.
05:31Yeah.
05:34Oh, I didn't know you guys...
05:35At any point, did you have any remorse at all?
05:37At any point, did you want to tell me the truth?
05:40Okay.
05:40So I'm also going to be charging you tonight
05:42for DUI as well, okay,
05:43in addition to the identity theft stuff, okay?
05:46So I'm going to have you sitting in that car over there.
05:49He turned what could have been just a simple misdemeanor
05:52now into a felony right now
05:53because he's lying to avoid jail time.
05:56He's assuming somebody else's identity,
05:58providing false information,
05:59in addition to discovering he has a warrant for his arrest,
06:03as well as his license status being suspended for DUI.
06:06And I suspect that he's under the influence
06:08of possibly cocaine.
06:11All right.
06:11Oh.
06:12You all right?
06:13No, I was laying down under.
06:14You're taking a nap?
06:16Okay.
06:17So your warrant's not even extraditable?
06:19No?
06:19Nope.
06:20So I lied for nothing?
06:22Pretty much.
06:23How does that make you feel?
06:24It makes me feel like a...
06:26All right.
06:33In the span of one hour,
06:35one drug driver removed from the road,
06:37charged with two felonies.
06:40I was just genuinely curious
06:42at what point in time
06:42he thought he was going to get away with everything.
06:47I've had many instances
06:49of identity theft before.
06:51We need to be on our toes.
06:53We need to be vigilant.
06:58Theft is rampant right now.
07:00You can't go in a store
07:02and not see somebody shoplifting.
07:04And we have to get serious
07:06about prosecuting these repeat offenders.
07:10Out here in the desert,
07:11we have a lot of low-light neighborhoods
07:13on not a lot of streetlights
07:15running through those neighborhoods.
07:16People think that they're able
07:17to move around completely unseen,
07:19undetected.
07:19The low-income areas,
07:21it's very constant
07:23where people are stealing
07:24and just trying to get ahead in life.
07:27Because when they start making those mistakes
07:30and committing those crimes
07:31of theft, burglary, robbery,
07:32whatever it may be.
07:35As I kind of drive into the district,
07:37that's when I start
07:39looking for crime occurring.
07:51What is the location of your emergency?
07:54A couple of weeks ago,
07:55a guy stole all my tools at my house.
07:57And you think that the person's
07:58back in the area?
07:59Yes, and I just saw the guy
08:01trying to steal
08:02a next street on my house.
08:04He's talking to a white male
08:05wearing black shirt.
08:07And I think he was wearing jeans.
08:08And he has, like, a force back.
08:11This guy told the dispatch
08:13that he had made a report
08:15about this guy
08:16that stole a bunch of tools from him.
08:18I guess the guy came back
08:19to either steal more stuff.
08:21Sounds like the guy
08:22that stole the stuff
08:23is a white male
08:27wearing a black hat,
08:28black shirt and jeans.
08:29We're going to go check out the park
08:31and see if he's over there.
08:34Hey, come here.
08:36We'll talk to you for a minute.
08:38Yellow and male, black over blue.
08:40Everything all right?
08:42I'm good, but I just thought
08:42I'm waiting to call to my mom.
08:44I told her she was on the way home.
08:45She said, just wait.
08:46I'm homeless.
08:47I just barely got into town.
08:48Okay.
08:49But I don't know where the house is
08:51and I'm waiting for her to come.
08:52You have your ID on your man?
08:53I don't.
08:54I hate that.
08:54Can I take for a minute?
08:55Want to call the police was on?
08:57Yeah, they said that
08:58he might be doing some weird stuff,
08:59so we're just making sure.
09:00I'm doing some weird stuff?
09:01Yeah, we're just making sure.
09:02I can fuck up.
09:02Okay.
09:0420 seconds.
09:06Okay, favorite.
09:07Put your hands behind your back.
09:09Am I being arrested, first of all?
09:10No, you're not being arrested.
09:11So why am I being detained?
09:12Let go of your stuff.
09:12Why am I being detained?
09:14Because of the drug care failure in your hand.
09:15That's why.
09:16All right.
09:17See, but I'm not being arrested.
09:18Why am I being detained?
09:19This is against the law, right?
09:20You know that, right?
09:21Okay.
09:21You know it's against the law, right?
09:22It's not against the law.
09:23Absolutely, you know.
09:24All right.
09:25We'll sort all this out in just a second, man.
09:26I'm not doing nothing against the law.
09:29And I ain't got no warrants or nothing,
09:30so y'all are being hella aggressive
09:32and way out of line about this, okay?
09:34And I know my rights, okay?
09:35You guys are treating me like I'm a criminal, dog.
09:37This is wrong, bro.
09:38So let's stop pushing on me.
09:40I'm not going nowhere, dog.
09:41You're hurting my hand, dog.
09:42I'm not doing nothing wrong.
09:43You're the one that's tensed up, man.
09:44Just relax.
09:45I'm not tensed up.
09:46You are tensed up.
09:48You won't feel my other hand.
09:49He's over here twisting my up and down.
09:50This is a dickhead.
09:51You're all right.
09:52You're all right.
09:53I'm dead.
09:54Y'all are the ones acting like I'm a criminal.
09:55You're being arrested for possession of drug fare.
09:57What was that?
09:58Crespassing and possession of drug fare.
10:00Hang tight, man.
10:06They're going to bring the original reportee over here
10:10so that they can see the subject that we have detained.
10:12We call this a show-up.
10:14Let's be sitting in a patrol vehicle
10:15so that they can have a clear visual of the suspect
10:19and they can confirm for us whether or not
10:21that's the person that was stealing stuff.
10:29They did end up just getting their positive ID on our suspect
10:32so that's always nice.
10:37You're being a right now and it's a phone.
10:44So the initial report referenced this outstanding suspect
10:47was that he had actually committed a theft about a week prior
10:51where he'd stolen approximately $1,000 worth of power tools
10:53from our victim here.
10:55That same victim spotted the suspect again
10:57in a nearby neighbor's yard attempting to steal a bike from that yard.
11:01When he tried to confront the guy, he ran off to the park here,
11:03which is where deputies were able to locate him.
11:19Knowing that you were able to fully service that member of the public
11:23that needed our assistance does give you a pretty fulfilled feeling
11:26and in a very, very quick manner, you know.
11:29It didn't have to take, you know, a week of investigation
11:33or, you know, months or something like that.
11:36It is a really great feeling.
11:37You don't always get to have it, though.
11:54Tonight's been quite quiet, but I've definitely seen
11:57how a quiet night can go from zero to 100 in an instant.
12:03That car looks completely blacked out from there.
12:19He's a thousand single, it's car stuck.
12:22Get back in the car now.
12:24Get back in the car.
12:31Turn the car off.
12:33Put your hands out the window.
12:37Why are you trying to get out the car?
12:39Why are you trying to get out the car?
12:41That's the only reason.
12:42Keep both your hands out the window.
12:46Sir, I swear to God, I was not trying to jump out.
12:49I swear to God, I was...
12:50Get out.
12:52Keep both your hands out the window.
12:53Get out.
12:55Sir, I have no weapons, no nothing in the car.
12:58Get out.
13:01Sir, I only jumped out because I just...
13:03You got anything on you?
13:05Nothing, nothing, nothing, nothing, nothing.
13:08Sir, I only jumped out because I just crashed my damn car.
13:14All right, get over there and stand back there by my car.
13:17Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, look real quick.
13:19Hey, hey.
13:24Hey.
13:24Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey.
13:27So let me explain to you why I pulled you over.
13:30Soon as you left that neighborhood back there and started flooring it,
13:32you were completely blacked out from the rear.
13:34And I've been trying to catch up to you
13:36since before I turned onto this first initial road.
13:38Were you even aware of that?
13:40I was not aware of that.
13:41Have you had anything to drink tonight?
13:43Beer.
13:43just one beer okay how many beers have you had okay so my next question is
13:51would you be willing to do some film sobriety tests no cool put your hands
13:55behind your back you're under the rest of the UI you don't have to be rough I'm
14:01I'm complaining I'm complaining I guess his car got stuck when he pulls over he
14:16goes to get out the car stuff like that is like indicators that you're either
14:19gonna get into a shooting or somebody's gonna run he kind of turned his body
14:23towards me which is why drew my handgun and pointed at him and gave him commands
14:28to get back into inside the car I can tell he's heavily intoxicated doesn't
14:32want to do field sobriety tests so based off the driving behaviors him not
14:37realizing the lights were off him kind of swerving a little bit inside out the
14:40lanes his slurred speech the strong odor of intoxicants from his breath and the
14:45way he was immediately losing his balance as soon as I got him out the car
14:49there's just telltale signs that he's under the influence he's got a freshly
14:59opened there right there in the sense console okay okay but let me explain
15:11something to you a completely blacked out car from the rear and as soon as I pull
15:15it over the driver trying hops out if you were a cop and you don't know if you
15:19have drugs or guns you you wouldn't think that's a little suspicious too come
15:25on come on okay I'm sure you've seen the videos on social media where the guy
15:29jumps out the driver's seat starts shooting at the car people exactly so now
15:34you understand but okay but as soon as you were cool with me and I got you out
15:39the car the gun went right back into the holster right under arrest okay you're
15:53under arrest for aggravated DUI the reason it is an aggravated DUI is because
15:56within the last seven years you've had two prior arrests for DUI you were taken
16:01down to be my added detention center we'll speak to a judge in the morning
16:34and I have a look where's your emergency I am traveling on West Valencia I just got in a

17:53I'm not.
17:53OK, come stand over here.
17:55So why didn't you stop?
17:57For what?
17:57You hit that vehicle over there.
17:59That's why she's.
18:00So you didn't know?
18:01You didn't realize you hit a vehicle?
18:03OK.
18:04Do me a favor.
18:04Go stand in front of my patrol car.
18:06Can you stand with him?
18:08Don't let him go back in the car.
18:09He has a gun right there on the thing.
18:10Just hold this for a second.
18:11I'm going to see what she has to say.
18:12Cool.
18:13And ask him, like, about the U-Haul stuff,
18:15because he's saying, like, he didn't know he hit her.
18:19Ma'am, so where did he hit you?
18:21In front of the Circle K that he rear-ended me.
18:23And I rolled down my window.
18:24I pulled over to the curb.
18:25I said, hey, can we talk about this at Circle K?
18:28And he was like, yeah, go, go, go.
18:29Oh, so he knew he hit you.
18:31He's dead.
18:31He did the dash.
18:32So she says that you said you were going to pull over,
18:35and then he took off.
18:36What's the deal?
18:37No, I didn't say any of that.
18:39OK, how long have you had this U-Haul?
18:40It's like yesterday.
18:42OK.
18:43Your license is suspended.
18:45You're not supposed to be driving.
18:47Why do you have a truck?
18:48Well, obviously, I'm moving.
18:50OK.
18:50Well, I don't know that.
18:51I'm just asking you.
18:52Well, I wouldn't have a U-Haul to be joyriding in it.
18:55You'll be surprised what people do.
18:57So he's just going to get a citation for hit and run,
19:01and then for driving off suspended.
19:03You guys, somebody?
19:04Is there a way I can get my phone?
19:05I was making a call.
19:06Yeah, is there someone that you can call to come get it?
19:10Yeah, I could call somebody.
19:11Your friend?
19:12Yeah.
19:13Oh, hold on.
19:13There's a gun in the car.
19:14Why are you letting you go back over there?
19:18Thanks, man.
19:19Huh?
19:20I'm trying to get in the car real bad.
19:21Who?
19:21I think that you.
19:22I know.
19:23I'm trying to get away from you.
19:24Why?
19:24Because I don't like the police.
19:26You don't like the police?
19:26Not really.
19:28He pushed us.
19:29I almost rear-ended someone else.
19:30Like, it was almost a pile-up.
19:31And he for sure said, like, he knew he pulled.
19:33Yeah, he waved at me, and he pointed.
19:35And I said, are you sure?
19:36And I was pulled in the side on the curb.
19:38And I said, are you sure?
19:39Let's go right here.
19:39And he said, yeah, yeah, go, go, go.
19:42He's going to get cited for a hit and run.
19:44The fact that he hit you and took off was just illegal, right?
19:47Yeah, that's crazy.
19:47All right, yeah.
19:48He doesn't have a valid driver's license.
19:50So I'm assuming that's probably why he took off.
19:54Still, you can't do that.
19:55You can't hit somebody.
19:57Her car didn't have any damage, just, like,
19:59the little scratches.
20:02I think she was more mad because of the principal.
20:15Not to sound cliche, but it is nice to help people.
20:19It is, like, something different every single day.
20:22I have two little girls.
20:25My youngest is very wild, so I can see her being a cop.
20:30Because she's so interested in it.
20:32She always asks me every day, what did you do at work, Mom?
20:35I would encourage her to do whatever she wants,
20:37whatever makes her happy.
20:39My significant other is also a cop, so she sees her mom and her dad.
20:55This is the Sheriff's Department.
20:56What's the emergency?
20:57I'm the manager of the AutoZone.
20:59Some guy just ran out with a big air pump.
21:01It's a big lime green box, so nobody sees him.
21:04He's wearing a baseball cap and a dark gray T-shirt.
21:10Okay.
21:11I got a call in place.
21:11They should be up there shortly.
21:15That's a theft.
21:17Somebody stole a compressor.
21:19It's going to be a Hispanic male wearing a dark gray and light blue shirt with a baseball
21:26hat.
21:26He's carrying a green box.
21:30I was still on the phone with the 1017.
21:33I have a subject here matching description.
21:35It looks like he changed.
21:43The suspect may have changed his clothes.
21:45We're not too sure.
21:49Aw, it looks like we found a backpack.
21:52Oh.
21:55It has to be that dude in the white.
21:57They changed.
21:59It has to be one of them.
22:02Hey, bud.
22:03Get me a pair.
22:03Put your hands down, bud.
22:07All right, bud.
22:07So you're being detained, all right?
22:09Mm-hmm.
22:10You got any weapons on you?
22:11Oh, yeah, there's a knife right there.
22:12Just a knife?
22:13I'm going to take it off you and give it to you next time, all right?
22:15Mm-hmm.
22:15You got any weapons on you?
22:16Take a seat perpetually.
22:17Let's go to this room.
22:22All right.
22:22Anything in there that belongs to you?
22:24Anything in there?
22:25All right.
22:26What about that compressor?
22:27It's not.
22:28Where's that from?
22:29It's not.
22:33Oh, he has a warrant.
22:36He has a warrant for shoplifting.
22:37What a surprise.
22:40So two items of clothing were located in the bag.
22:42It was a black hat and a gray shirt, and those are the items that the reporter described
22:46that the suspect was wearing.
22:49So we got the compressor back, and they're taking it back.
22:52And he has warrants, so he's going to go to jail.
23:00I like to catch thieves.
23:02You have the hardworking family who's paying using their last penny, and then you have these
23:09thieves who just come in and steal, and then prices go up, and I just have a thing.
23:14I don't like thieves.
23:28911, what was your emergency?
23:30This car was coming maybe 100, 120 miles per hour.
23:33It looked like a rocket just went by us.
23:38Oh.
23:38Oh, look, look.
23:39Over there, over there.
23:40Whoa.
23:42Okay, so you don't see the vehicle anymore?
23:44It's in the bushes.
24:02We just got a call about a vehicle collision.
24:05They described a gray, older, Florida sedan going about 120 miles per hour, crashed into
24:11some bushes.
24:12So we're going to head over there.
24:15First thing we want to do is make sure that there's no significant injuries with a crash
24:19at speeds like that.
24:27Is this your car?
24:29Yes.
24:29You feel any injuries or anything, though?
24:32Just a couple of cactuses when I got out.
24:34Okay.
24:35What happened?
24:36So when I had stopped at that stop sign.
24:39Yeah.
24:39I came over here.
24:40I came around like 60 miles per hour, and I jumped over that bump right there.
24:45Okay.
24:45And I had spun this way, and then I overcorrected, and I got a tooth here.
24:51Gotcha.
24:53So how much have you had to drink tonight?
24:55I had a drink about two hours ago.
24:57Do you remember what it was?
24:58It was a margarita house mix.
25:00Okay.
25:01I just want to determine whether or not you're safe to be traveling on the roadways, man.
25:05I see your speed coming up here.
25:06It looks like you were going pretty quick to blow through that stop sign, lose control right
25:11there.
25:11You look really lucky.
25:12You don't look like you're injured at all to me, so that's great.
25:14But it definitely could have been worse, man.
25:16All right.
25:17I'm going to walk you through some filled sobriety tests.
25:19Yeah.
25:19Are you already?
25:20What's going on?
25:28He's having a rough night, sir.
25:29You got a lot going on here.
25:32I mean, if it helps, man, your lady's here after we get all done with this and stuff like
25:36that, I'll let you talk to her, and you guys can work on whatever you guys got going
25:39on, all right?
25:45All right.
25:45So I'm just going to have you stand straight up if you can.
25:47I'm going to have you put your feet together, arms down by your side.
25:49All right.
25:50I'm going to have you start the clip with this pen, okay?
25:52You're going to use your eyes and your eyes holding you.
25:54Do not move your head, okay?
26:06Yeah, I'll 26.
26:10So you've been pretty calm for this whole thing, man?
26:12All right.
26:12So we're going to be pretty calm with you as well, all right?
26:15Okay.
26:16At this time, you are going to be placed under rest for PUI, okay?
26:19We're going to put your coast in the front as long as you stay.
26:22Yeah, as long as you stay calm.
26:23We're going to try to get this all completed out here so that you can be on your way tonight.
26:27Any weapons or anything on you, man?
26:29Any knives, bombs, grenades hidden somewhere?
26:32We always got to ask.
26:34All right.
26:35You're good, man.
26:37Do you think you should have been driving with the amount of alcohol that you have consumed?
26:41No.
26:41On a scale of one to ten, with one being completely sober and ten being extremely impaired,
26:46where do you think you are?
26:48Four.
26:50Maybe five.
26:52There's another deputy here.
26:53He's a department qualified phlebotomist, okay?
26:56I'm going to speak with him shortly on the next step, and this would be getting a blood draw from
27:00you.
27:01Will you consent to the test?
27:03Yes.
27:06My name's Deputy Castles, all right?
27:07I'm a qualified phlebotomist.
27:09I'm going to try to get it done and get you on your way, okay, man?
27:12I already know it's going to come up with alcohol, baby weed.
27:17Okay.
27:17Well, that's not for me to determine, man.
27:21Definitely got some of the telltale signs.
27:23Got a little bit of odor of intoxicants.
27:26An intoxicated person like this individual is going from calm, cool, collected,
27:31to kind of getting really emotional, starting to cry a little bit.
27:34Sometimes maybe it's reality setting in.
27:37I'm surprised I didn't just look up these cars because I wasn't wearing it.
27:41Okay, yeah, man.
27:42That's super lucky.
27:43Coming through there, how that thing dips down, man.
27:44He could have hit one of these power poles or something crazy.
27:49You're all set, man.
28:02You know, miraculously was uninjured from that collision.
28:06From the looks of it and the damage to the roadways,
28:09it looks like he was going, you know, over 100 miles an hour.
28:14It looks like that's the second DUI case that he now has in less than two years.
28:19So hopefully he kind of has a bit of a wake-up call from that crash.
28:469-1-1, where's your emergency?
28:48I'm on the road right now, and there's this gentleman that almost died in a car accident.
28:54He's literally almost stopped in the middle of the intersection.
28:57Some vehicle's oncoming traffic was almost hit up.
29:01I'm going to get an additional help, then.
29:03Okay.
29:04He took off with the driver's door open.
29:07You're guessing if somebody clicks.
29:10No, he's getting on the freeway.
29:12He's better get on the freeway.
29:14You're guessing if clicks.
29:20I'm just running into an erratic driver.
29:23We don't know if he's intoxicated or having some type of medical episode.
29:27I'm really scared, because he's just going without stopping.
29:30He's doing a U-turn.
29:31Oh, my God.
29:32You really have to get somebody out here quick, because this could be dangerous.
29:37So we're going to see if we can locate him,
29:40just to make sure there's not an emergency situation going on.
29:45We don't want a collision to occur.
29:49Our reporting party's following behind him.
29:52I think this will be our guy right here, actually.
29:56602.
29:56We'll be behind the vehicle at I-10 and outpost 262.
30:02He's continuing in the Westbound.
30:04He doesn't seem to really have noticed that I'm behind him.
30:07The pressure needs breaking now.
30:08I'm flying on my shoulder.
30:14Hey, sir.
30:16Hey, how's it going?
30:18Deputy Carter, Sheriff's Department.
30:20We're stopping out with you, because you've been driving all over the road.
30:23You seem kind of confused on where you're going.
30:25Your vehicle doesn't have a license plate on it.
30:30Okay.
30:31Is this your car?
30:33Yeah.
30:33You have a license on you?
30:34No.
30:36Okay.
30:38I got you.
30:39Go ahead and step out for me.
30:43Do you have a cane or a walk or anything?
30:46Just off to the side right here.
30:50How far from home are you?
30:51Can I see that real quick?
30:52Oh, you're about 10 minutes out?
30:54Where are you going?
30:56I can't have you walking down the freeway, man.
31:01No, I'm not going to have you stay with your car right now.
31:02I'm going to have you stay right here in front of the truck.
31:04Once everything's squared away, if you're good to go, man, we'll cut you loose, okay?
31:11Deputy's going to take you home, okay?
31:13Why can't I take that home?
31:15Because you can't drive right now.
31:17All right.
31:17We can't let you get back on the road.
31:18You had too many close calls.
31:20All right.
31:20You almost caused a few accidents, so we can't let you drive right now.
31:23I've never had an accident.
31:25I got you.
31:25You can get in touch with your family, and when they can help you out, you can come get your
31:29car.
31:29It's going to still be right here, okay?
31:33We'll most likely be submitting some forms to the DMV to have his driving privileges reviewed and possibly have him
31:40retest to make sure that he's actually able to drive properly.
31:46He seemed completely oblivious to the multiple collisions that he almost was involved in.
31:57Working for Pima County, it's pretty cool.
32:00I think my style of policing is definitely a reflection of my upbringing out here and seeing the different struggles.
32:09I think it's helped me a lot to develop a lot of long-lasting rapport with the community.
32:15I definitely don't try to be two different people, you know, inside and outside of work.
32:20Outside of work, you know, I'm spending time with my family, with friends and stuff.
32:25But, you know, when you come to work, you're still the same person.
32:369-1-1, where's your emergency?
32:38Next, I'm part of a four-wheeler driving erratically out here on Valencia Road by Casino del Sol.
32:44I think he's intoxicated.
32:46He doesn't have any lights, and he almost had me going against traffic.
32:49It's a dark-colored ATV.
32:51There was just a report of an ATV driver causing a bit of a scene.
32:56So we're just going to be checking to see if we can locate the vehicle.
33:02Hey, can I get your social from you?
33:04Don't give me that light, dude.
33:05My picture comes up every time I've been in town.
33:08It ain't my first brain with you guys.
33:09What's the next light that you're going to say?
33:12When was the last time I was in trouble?
33:14Like I told you, I came out of the desert, I wasn't on the road.
33:16You'll see my tracks, you'll know it.
33:20He's saying that he came from the desert area, that he wasn't driving on the roadways at all.
33:23So, we're going to see right now if the reportee that called in that vehicle has any additional information that
33:29can help clear this up for us.
33:31I got my premier tribunal, I don't know what the is going on here.
33:37Hello?
33:38Hey, this is Deputy Carter with the Sheriff's Department.
33:40We're just calling about that ATV you reported earlier.
33:42Were you able to see the driver at all?
33:44The dude was maybe his late 20s, early 30s or something like that.
33:48I think he had like a hat on but I can't be too sure.
33:51Alright, sounds good man, I appreciate it.
33:54Alright, it sounds like it was more closer to probably a juvenile now that we've got a more clear description.
33:58A little bit of education, man.
33:59Anytime you cross over a road to get to somewhere, you're subject to the same laws, right?
34:03Right.
34:03Right there, where are the lights at?
34:06The light pool's sitting at right there, that's where I cross.
34:09If you're crossing over county roads, which you did to get here, you're subject to the same laws.
34:15I'm just, I'm letting you know what's up, right man?
34:16We're not here messing with you.
34:17I got a real call saying that somebody was driving around.
34:19You're right here on a...
34:20I came straight to my house to get something to eat, came across the road.
34:22That's fine.
34:22But somebody calls in, gives us this intersection into the quad.
34:24I heard somebody on a bike going up and down, but it wasn't me.
34:26Alright, so now you know that we're not messing with you, okay?
34:28We don't just pull up and talk to random quad guys, alright man?
34:30Alright, alright.
34:31All the pushback from you though is...
34:33The thing about it is, you guys see me every day on this thing.
34:36I never ride it on the road.
34:37I don't think we've ever talked.
34:39No, we haven't because you're probably one of the new sheriffs that just got pulled here.
34:42No, I've been here for years.
34:43I've been here since 86, bro.
34:44I've been riding this desert since 86.
34:45I've been riding this desert since 86.
34:46I'm just saying, if we're always crossing paths and I've never talked to you,
34:49that kind of lets you know that I'm not messing with you, right?
34:50Right.
34:50Okay.
34:52Alright, I'll let you go on your way, but if you're going to be driving on roads out here,
34:56and we're going to be contacting you, then yeah, get your stuff sorted.
34:58We'll leave it at that, alright?
34:59Alright.
34:59Yep.
35:05So we sent him on his way.
35:07I'm sure he was glad about that.
35:08He wasn't too happy to be making contact with us in the first place, so it ended okay.
35:13You know, I educated him on a few things in regards to him operating his quad on the roadways
35:17and letting him know he's subject to the same laws as everybody else.
35:23Just another night out here.
35:42I've been with the Pima County Sheriff's Department for a little over six years now.
35:46I love working midnights.
35:48You know, there's a lot of dangerous people that like to commit crimes at night,
35:53and that's the kind of people I like to go search after.
36:19We've got a report of a shoplifting.
36:22Just drive around, see if we can find the guy.
36:29Yeah, 145, we've got eyes on the west side of the Family Dollar in the ravine.
36:35Hey, Sheriff's Department, bro, let me talk to you.
36:41What you doing?
36:42Sleeping.
36:43You sleeping?
36:44Yeah.
36:45You got any weapons on you?
36:46No.
36:46No?
36:47Alright.
36:48Stop it.
36:49Well, we just had somebody do some thieving next door.
36:52I ain't doing anything.
36:53No, that's fine, man.
36:54It might not be you, but we're gonna check it out just because he was last seen heading this direction.
36:58You went running that way?
37:02Yeah.
37:02Okay.
37:07You said he's all around him right now?
37:08Yeah.
37:09Do you know what he was wearing?
37:10Um, he was in, I think, black.
37:12Black?
37:13Black?
37:14I think that would be a nice door.
37:16Mind if I just try you down real quick?
37:19Yeah.
37:20Oh, it was up here.
37:21I heard him rising and rising.
37:23I don't know why I'm getting in trouble.
37:25Okay.
37:27Alright.
37:27You're good, man.
37:27Have a seat.
37:28Yeah, so I initially checked that, the back of the family dollar working eastbound.
37:33And then as I'm coming back, he's just laying there with the back against concrete.
37:38So I'm just gonna trace back and see if there's something that's back there.
37:42Alright.
37:44What is this?
37:47Let me go to the other side of this tree.
37:50That's a lot of snacks.
37:52There we go.
37:55Oh.
37:56I could see the blue shirt with white spots as described by the clerk.
37:59And this was laying exactly where I had seen him.
38:03A common thing is to strip down after you do whatever crime you do, right?
38:06Change your appearance.
38:11You're transparent on your back.
38:15Let me see your shoes real quick.
38:18I'd show you what they do.
38:20Alright.
38:22I mean, you're not born yesterday, man.
38:24Right?
38:26Same shoes, same sweatpants.
38:28The only thing he did was he took his shirt off and just kind of used it as a bag
38:32to hold
38:32all of this stuff.
38:34The shoes matter because almost 100% of the time when somebody commits a crime, they don't
38:38have time to change their shoes.
38:40They don't have time to use, nor does anybody really think about bringing in a second pair
38:42of shoes to change into.
38:44I don't know why people decide they want to steal.
38:47They're not very good at it.
38:48We usually end up catching them.
39:06Hey, it's 682 on West.
39:07Will you make me at large, please?
39:09Okay, thank you.
39:10Being at large essentially means we can go from beats two and three, which are our residential
39:16rural areas, to beat one, which is our more metro populated area, where we border with
39:22the city a bit more.
39:23There's just a lot more going on in beat one for the most part on most days.
39:29The vehicle in front of us is showing some signs of impairment.
39:33It's swerving a bit in its lane.
39:35We're just going to have to pull it over.
39:44You made a pretty aggressive lane change, having a little issue staying in your lane.
39:49I'm just tired of that.
39:51Okay, have you had anything to drink tonight, ma'am?
39:53Nothing at all.
39:54So where are you headed?
39:59All right, just give me one second.
40:01She seemed like she was honestly making up her story as she was going along.
40:04I'm not smelling a strong odor coming from her, but we'll perform a HGN and see what her
40:11eyes look like.
40:13Follow the tip of my finger with your eyes.
40:19All right, ma'am.
40:20Have you been drinking at all tonight?
40:22I don't drink.
40:23Okay.
40:23I understand you say you don't drink.
40:26However, some of the things I've observed is telling me different.
40:29So...
40:30I'm just really exhausted.
40:31I take sleeping pills.
40:32All right.
40:33You took a half of the sleeping pills and I'm really going to drink.
40:36I promise you I don't drink.
40:38I was at home midnight.
40:40These children messaged me up.
40:42The kids said, do you mind giving us a ride?
40:44Okay.
40:45Should you be taking those and driving?
40:47Well, I just took a tiny amount.
40:50But should you be taking those and driving?
40:53No.
40:54I'm just going to have you sit back here for now.
40:57It could be a drug DUI or maybe this is a simple mistake.
41:02Either way, she shouldn't be driving.
41:04So we have to address this.
41:06I've never had a DUI.
41:08I've never been to jail.
41:09You don't have a criminal history.
41:11You don't seem like this is going to be an ordinary thing for you.
41:14Right.
41:15So because of that, instead of giving me a DUI, I'm going to request that the MBD redo your driving
41:22test to make sure you are okay to drive.
41:24You said you have a fiance, right?
41:25Can he come give you a ride?
41:27Yeah, absolutely.
41:27Perfect.
41:28You can go ahead and step out, man.
41:30Well, I feel like she is potentially impaired.
41:33However, there are prescription drugs and she isn't abusing them.
41:37Bad as her driving behavior really was, it wasn't necessarily dangerous.
41:41And on top of charging her for DUI, we'd also be charging her with felony endangerment.
41:46Because she has a 15-year-old and two other minors in the car.
41:51And that's a real hammer for someone that seems like they just made a mistake when taking their meds.
41:58She won't be getting arrested tonight.
41:59And more importantly, we will be getting her off the road safely.
42:21Navalny and Flugs are smart.
42:21That's a real hammer.
42:21No.
42:21No.
42:22No.
42:22No.
42:23Yes.
42:24No.
