Drunk Driver Hotpursuit
Castle Hills, Texas, December 2020
The Castle Hills Police Department released footage of a pursuit, chasing a drunk driver who was driving all over the road.
The officer noticed a car dangerously driving through the lanes, not giving any warnings and approaching really close to other vehicles on the 410 roads in Castle Hills, Texas in December of the last year. The Castle Hills Police Department released the video of the pursuit yesterday (27th July).
Attempting to conduct a traffic stop the officer sounded his sirens, but the driver ignored him and continued driving. The drunk driver quickly picked up a speed but was still intercrossing lanes.
Eventually, the driver crashed into a large concrete pillar while trying to make a turn. The driver exited the vehicle and started running on foot.
The driver was quickly captured by the officers who conducted a pursuit and a colleague who came as a backup. He was arrested on the spot, charged with multiple charges and taken to jail. His vehicle was towed away.
