A suspect who had installed a bong into the dashboard of his car was arrested for the 98th time by officers following a high speed chase. Dashcam footage shared by Thurston County Sherriff Derek Sanders on Monday (23 March) shows officers chasing a vehicle through Down Olympia, Washington after they received reports that a pair of organized retail theft suspects had just fled a store. After a high speed pursuit, which was then called off by officers due to the reckless driving of the fleeing motorist, officers eventually located the two suspects and their truck. Inside the truck officers found a “custom bong device built into the dash of the truck so he could comfortably smoke drugs while driving”. Meth, heroin, and fentanyl were also discovered, as well as the stolen items. The driver of the truck had 97 prior arrests. He is facing charges of DUI, eluding, and possession of narcotics. The passenger was turned over to Centralia PD for organized retail theft.
Hence the photo, which should make it pretty easy to figure out who the guy is when he’s already registered in the system. Once you know who he is you quickly find out where he’s living, because again, the guy has 97 priors, so the cops should have a solid database on where he tends to reside and who he knows.
The fucking day he got out he bought a cheap used car, slapped an old out-of-state license plate on it, and went right back to driving around drunk as shit.
That’s absolutely horrendous… hope he gets caught again before he kills someone…
Besides that: That could quickly be a situation where whoever is apprehending him recognises that he’s drunk-driving and that he’s a big enough threat to the public to warrant chasing him down instead of letting him go and apprehending him later.
