East on Plover, North on Dowd, it seemed like about three or four times. More police joined
in the chase which was describe by the police, as a control pursuit, and described by the
residents as "It was crazy they just kept zooming around the block, sirens blaring. At
one point with so many cars and sirens, there was a call to "turn sirens off I can't hear"
Around the fourth of fifth time the driver stop at Halstead and Plover, jumping out of his
car running into some bushes where he was caught.
The male was arrested and taken to jail.
Then the search of the car...
Some of the residents laughing and joking after the event. Luckily, no one was hurt.
The streets were pretty full with porch parties going on.
Beverage still in the cup holder.
The driver lost his shoe while running.
OK move along, nothing to see here.
The bushes the driver dove through to escape police in morning light.
Good work Lakewood Police. It would seem they rarely get away from our Police.
