Summary

A suspect involved in a robbery drove away Sunday, with police close behind. The high speed chase ended he slammed into a mini van filled with innocent people. The chase went from 90 miles per hour to zero in a matter of seconds. Sirens sounded as Franklin police chased a robbery suspect along Rawson Avenue, going as fast as 90 miles per hour. The suspect in a black Cadillac swerved in and out of traffic. Then, he sideswiped a white mini-van and crashed into a snow bank. “Rollover at 76th and Rawson,” officers reported to their dispatcher. Officers jumped out of their squad cars and drew their guns. “Show me your hands! Show me your hands,” they shouted. While police tried to arrest the driver, witnesses ran to help the family of three who were inside the mini-van. They were all taken to the hospital with minor injuries “Being in the intersection within 30 seconds of this happening, it is scary,” Witness Lisa Plewa said. It took half a dozen officers to finally get the suspect, 35-year-old David Martin, out of the car. They pulled him to the ground and took him into custody for causing what could've been a very deadly scene on Franklin’s busy streets.
