A CRAZY CHASE OF A DRUG TRAFFICKER OUTSIDE SALT LAKE CITY DURING RUSH HOUR. AFTER DRIVING IN THE BREAKDOWN LANE AND THE SHOULDER LANE AND AVOIDING COPS AND SPIKE STRIPS, THE CHASE FINALLY COMES TO AN END WHEN THE COP RAMS THE CAR HEAD-ON. THERE IS A COOL FROM A TRAFFIC CAMERA THAT HAS THE RAMMING CAUGHT ON TAPE. IT TURNS OUT THAT DURING THE CHASE, THE SUSPECT SWALLOWED A BALLOON FILLED WITH HEROIN IN ADDITION TO THE HEROIN THAT WAS FOUND IN THE CAR BY TROOPERS AFTER THE CHASE WAS OVER.

AN EXTREMELY FAST CHASE AT NIGHT WHERE THE SUSPECT ENDS UP GETTING RAMMED FROM THE SIDE AND THEN ENDS UP TAKING OFF ON FOOT. POLICE EVENTUALLY CATCH HIM DOWN A LOCAL SIDE STREET.

AMAZING VIDEO IN UTAH WHERE TWO HIGHWAY PATROL OFFICERS RUN FOR THEIR LIVES. IT WAS A RESULT OF A VAN HAULING A TRAILER THAT OVERTURNED ON THE ICY INTERSTATE. THE TROOPERS BARELY ESCAPED BEING CRUSHED BY THE VEHICLES. IF YOU LOOK CLOSELY, YOU WILL SEE THAT THE WHOLE THING STARTED WHEN THE TROOPERS WERE HELPING A MAN IN AN OVERTURNED PICK UP TRUCK -- SEEN ON THE LEFT SIDE OF THE SCREEN. HE DOESN'T KNOW JUST HOW LUCKY HE WAS ON THAT SNOWY DAY.
