Another I-10 High-Speed Pursuit
BALDWIN COUNTY Ala.
August 25, 2024

For the second time in four days, an Alabama State Trooper attempted to conduct a traffic enforcement stop on a vehicle traveling Westbound on Interstate 10 but the driver refused to pull over and stop.
The pursuit began at 3:29 p.m., seconds after the trooper spotted an infraction and put on his blue lights.
And that’s when the driver of the KIA decided that he was going to attempt to get away from law enforcement.
The pursuit continued Westbound, through fairly light traffic and clear conditions, reaching speeds around 90.
At one point it looked like the driver was “mouthing” something out the window as the trooper was closing in on him.
As the driver approached Exit 27, he quickly veered right down the Exit and came to a sudden stop which was a smart move on the driver’s part since more law enforcement was speeding that way.
Troopers were able to detain the driver and a passenger without any further resistance.
Once the driver was in custody, he told a state trooper that when he called 911 the dispatcher told him “Don’t Stop”.
