-- Working as Sheriff Reserve Deputy on Patrol--- Takes place, 3rd shift (01:10 hours) in the West part of Wichita, KS. My buddie and I were patroling on our beat boarder in West Wichita, KS. We were going North on a main road, and chatting about stuff (women troubles).... As he is looking down at his phone, texting his new "buddy" and driving (i was steering from the passenger side), we passed a car that had caught my eye. It was a small 4 door, darker car.. What caught my eye, was the driver side brake light, and whole back right side of the car was busted up.. Looked fresh.. (the area has a few different bars near where we were at)... I bring this to my partners attention, which shocked him, because he missed something.. and got a 1/2 block away in the wrong direction, when he turned on the guy.. THe guy turn right onto a secondary road way, and sped up rapidly... As we got to the stoplight, he was already 1/2 a block away, and gaining on us.. We started closing the distance in the 2004 Crown Victoria, and the dude turned a sharp right into a residential area... As we turn the corner, I activated the emergency lights, and siren.. and called in to dispatch.. "1, dispatch, we have a car high rate of speed trying to loose us........" The dispatcher came back.. "10-4, where you at?".... I had no idea.. and our speeds at this time were 60 mph in a residential area, with cars parked on both sides of the street, with an occasional road sign... I finally caught a glance about 1/2mile after we started this fun adventure.. We approached a stop sign, and we are about 4 seconds behind this car now... He RUNS IT.. and almost sideswips a church bus... We stay on his heels.... He takes us down some main roads, then onto another 2ndary road.. Hits a spike strip, ... then gets on a dirt road.. "BLACKS OUT".... and hits another spike strip... He then gets to a high way.. on 3 wheels.. goes East, in the West lanes.. , then drives in the median, and head on into(EDIT: Towards) a civilian pickup truck.. He then takes us onto another dirt road.... into a residential area.. only "THROUGH THE YARDS, and WOODEN FENCES!!!"... We get back on the dirt road we had just gotten off of a few moments ago.. and goes into a different Paved residential area.. He is going abuck 10.. (110 mph) towards the end of the road.. and there is a barricade, of haybales.. and a gaurd rail.. (the gaurd rail is like what you find on the high ways, with 4x4's in the ground, and the hay bales are rectangular.. stacked 6 high, by 4 deep..)... He drives RIGHT THROUGH IT!! and into a field... We follow him right into this field, and my seat belt comes undone... :6: and now i'm hitting the roof of the car as we are bouncing through this field..... We fly up a ditch, back onto a paved road.. and almost strike another patrol car head on... The guy still has no lead on us... We go through a MAJOR intersection, which by this time is full of other patrol cars, and he drives around the spike strips (another felony for the books)... We go another 3-4 miles, through a couple of other residential areas, all with curves... almost hit another couple of crazy city officers, and finally come to a stop, 4 blocks from his house.... He puts his hands up.. on all 4 rims.. sparks flying, smell of brakes in the air..... rolls to a stop... The SGT drives in front of the car.. and we all have our guns pointed in his (mainly at the subject in the car) direction... he looks at me, and freaks!... My parter pulls the driver out of the car, and body slams him to the ground, as 4 other officers and a Kansas State Trooper move in the cuff the guy. I'm the lucky one who gets to ask him... "Why did you run? I was only going to give you a ticket for the busted tail light.." He said .... "I wanted to finish my Smirinoff first"..... .... sure enough, I search the car,.... and there it is, and empty 6 pack, with the bottles in it on the driver side floorboard.....
