Massachusetts State Police helicopter tracks stolen car, leading to 5 arrests
The Massachusetts State Police department is sharing a bird's-eye-view video of auto theft suspects being tracked and arrested.
The video shared by state police on Monday shows an MSP Air Wing Unit helicopter when it received a Lojack hit for a stolen motor vehicle while it was flying over Brockton on Thursday, Dec. 23.
The helicopter, which was crewed by Sgt. Gregg Spooner and Trooper Joshua Pacheco, located the stolen car and directed Brockton Police Department and MSP patrols to its location.
When a Brockton police cruiser got behind the vehicle, the suspects fled at a high rate of speed. This action prompted a pursuit that spanned several communities, according to state police.
The ground pursuit was called off due to the threat it posed to public safety, but the state police helicopter continued to follow the car, and Spooner and Pacheco repeatedly updated ground units of its changing location.
The vehicle eventually pulled up to the Chatham West Apartments complex in Brockton and five suspects exited the vehicle. Those suspects eventually fled onto the DW Field Parkway and into an adjacent wooded area.
The MSP helicopter continue to monitor the suspects' locations through its forward-looking infrared (FLIR) thermal camera system, and Spooner and Pacheco directed patrols toward the suspects.
As a result of the overflight support, state troopers and Brockton police were able to find the suspects hiding in the woods and take them into custody.
The suspects involved in the incident were not identified by state police
