DUNE RUNNING: Car Chase Suspect Gets Stuck In Sand
A suspect in a high-speed car chase was cornered by police when his car got stuck fast after he drove into deep sand.
The driver - named as Stephen Perk, 36 - had been trying to flee police in Marion County, Florida state, USA, after they attempted to stop him on 15th January.
Police dashcam footage shows how the patrol car chased him through suburban steets with Perk driving on the wrong side of the road trying to shake them off.
But as he drove into a dead end road, Perk apparently tried to make a U-turn in a lay-by.
Instead he got trapped in sand and was seized at gunpoint by police.
As he was arrested, Perk admitted that he was on the run from a warrant for violating his probation.
Newsflash obtained a statement from the Marion County Sheriff's Office on Friday, 20th January saying that Deputy Kevin Wilson arrested Perk "for fleeing to elude a law enforcement officer and driving with a revoked license. Perk also had a violation of probation warrant for driving under the influence."
The statement went on: "While traveling near the 8300 block of SW Highway 484, Deputy Wilson observed a white Mercedes C240 swerving within the lane, speeding, and crossing over the center yellow line.
"As the driver, Stephen Perk, turned onto Marion Oaks Pass, Deputy Wilson attempted to conduct a traffic stop with his lights and siren activated.
"Perk refused to stop and fled at a high rate of speed until he drove off of the roadway while turning onto Southwest 88th Court.
"Perk’s tires began to spin in the sand and Deputy Wilson utilized his patrol vehicle to force Perk’s tires further into the sand, which caused Perk to become stuck.
"He was ultimately removed from the vehicle. Perk advised he fled because he had an active warrant and does not have a valid driver’s license.
"Perk was arrested and transported to the Marion County Jail, where he is held without bond." (sic)
