Patrol Activity:
Trooper 2 was headed to a shots fired call in Detroit when the crew observed a vehicle leaving the area driving recklessly.

They tracked the vehicle to Warren, where Warren Police attempted to stop the vehicle on 8 Mile. The vehicle fled from officers at a high rate of speed. The ground units did not pursue and Trooper 2 continued to track the vehicle.

The suspect driver failed to negotiate a turn and crashed into some trees. Four occupants ran from the vehicle. All four subjects were arrested and the owner of the vehicle had multiple felony warrants.

“Great work by aviation and ground units to take these suspects into custody.” said F/Lt Mike Shaw. “Trooper 2 continues to patrol over the district to provide back up to ground units and help keep Michigander’s safe.”
