The New York Post called it “stomach-dropping video” of the May 24 incident as police tried to stop Tyrice Fletcher, 28, for a traffic violation in Camden, Arkansas, only to see him speed away.
Police say they were unaware children, all under the age of six, were inside the car when the 100-mph chase began.
The Post reports: “An ASP officer could be seen walking cautiously toward the wreck and noticing an infant lying in the grass near the smoking vehicle and downed electrical wires in the shocking footage.
“The officer quickly picks up the child and runs to safety, securing the infant in the back of his cruiser while his partner keeps watch over the car.”
“Despite the terrifying crash, the children only suffered minor injuries and were transported by ambulance to Ouachita County Medical Center. Their mother was notified of the crash.”
“As a father, I cannot fathom a parent making the decision to drive recklessly, much less flee from law enforcement, with their children in the vehicle,” ASP Col. Mike Hagar said.
“I thank God the children were not injured,” he added.
Fletcher, of El Dorado, Arkansas, faces numerous charges, including: felony fleeing, possession of a defaced firearm, possession of firearm by certain persons, four counts of endangering the welfare of a minor, criminal mischief, possession of a controlled substance, possession of drug paraphernalia, four counts of no child passenger restraint, reckless driving, no driver’s license, no seatbelt and improper passing on the left.
