OFFICER DRAGGED, RUN OVER - 2009
VILLA RICA, Ga. -- A routine traffic stop ended with an officer being dragged 60 feet and run over. The officer amazingly escaped with minor injuries and was said to be recovering at home Tuesday. Villa Rica police gave Channel 2 Action News reporter Jodie Fleischer the dash cam video from the incident. The video shows the driver pulling away and the officer hanging on until he's run over by the car's back wheel. Police said Sgt. Chet Long with the Villa Rica Police Department stopped Marko Burton, 28, for speeding near the intersection of Highways 61 and 78 in Carroll County late Monday night. "Cut your car off," Long can be heard saying on the dash cam video. The driver listens, but then the officer suspects something else. "How much marijuana (have) you been smoking?" Long asked. "I didn't smoke none," said Burton. Long ordered Burton to unlock the door, and when he didn't, Long reached in to the car just as dispatch called back to check on him. The officer's microphone went silent as the car ran him over with its back tire. Witnesses ran to help him. "One woman actually saw him drive up the road and came back and went into the apartment complex, which helped us out a great deal," said Capt. Scott Parker with the Villa Rica Police Department. Within 25 minutes, officers found Burton in the Hampton Court Apartments. Burton has been charged with assaulting the officer and a drug charge. Long will spend a few days recovering at home and then will spend a week on light duty. "We're very fortunate that he's OK and it's one of the worst calls you get as a police chief is one of your officers being down and injured," said Villa Rica Police Chief Michael Mansour. "He's doing great, in good spirits says he's not hurting as much as he expected to be."
RURAL ROUGH RIDER CHASE (2008)
A Georgia man is facing multiple felony charges after leading police from three states on a high-speed chase that ended in Seminole County, Ga. Seminole County Sheriff Dale Swanner said Joe William Holden, 46, of Poulan, Ga., began fleeing Houston County Sheriff’s deputies Thursday afternoon. The chase continued into Jackson County, Fla., at speeds in excess of 100 mph. Holden continued from there into Seminole County where sheriff’s deputies followed Holden off of State Highway 91 into an open field. Deputies fired several shots at the tires of Holden’s vehicle in order to disable it, but Holden continued driving his 1999 Buick Century into the thick woods at the end of the field. He eventually got out of the vehicle and ran into the woods. ‘The suspect was driving in a manner which caused danger to the public,’ Swanner said. ‘Our deputies did what they had to do to terminate the chase and make sure the public was no longer in danger.’ A female passenger was taken into custody after Holden fled the vehicle. Swanner said Thursday night it is unclear whether she will face any charges. Holden eluded law enforcement personnel from three states for almost two hours until he attempted to stop a passerby on Georgia Highway 91. The motorist called police, tracking dogs were taken to the scene and they immediately tracked Holden to a wooded area near the Chattahoochee River. Holden is facing two counts of aggravated assault on a peace office for striking two separate Seminole county police cars, Swanner said. He is also charged with felony obstruction of justice and numerous traffic violations. He could be facing other charges in Houston and Jackson counties. Holden had no outstanding warrants and it is unclear why he began fleeing. He was on probation for un unknown violation in Daughtry County, Ga.

DRUNK CARJACKER CHASE AND CRASH 2004
Police in Riverdale, Ga., arrested a man who they say led them on a wild, high-speed chase. Police Chase Caught On Tape Police say Donald Jones approached Shaneka Howard's sport utility vehicle while she was stopped at a red light and yanked her door open, pulled her out by her hair and took off in her vehicle. Police say Jones sped away, veering off the road, slamming into brick walls and at times sailing into the air. At one point, Jones lost control of the SUV and skidded to a stop. That's when police say he ran into the woods where they subdued and arrested him. Police say Jones was so drunk that someone had to hold his head up for the mug shot camera. Howard says this was the one time she didn't lock her car doors. "I learned that people are crazy, she said. "They will mess with you for nothing."
SUV SIDESWIPE 2008
A COUPLE DRIVING IN GEORGIA ARE SIDESWIPED BY AN SUV. THEY FOLLOW THE DRIVER TO GET HIS LICENSE PLATE. THE SUV DRIVES INTO A DITCH AND THE COUPLE RUNS TO A NEIGHBOR’S HOUSE TO GET HELP. BUT WHEN THEY COME BACK THE MAN ROBS ALL THREE PEOPLE AND STEALS A PICKUP TRUCK. THAT’S WHEN POLICE ARE CALLED AND A HIGH SPEED CHASE IS UNDERWAY. EFFINGHAM COUNTY, GA -- An Effingham County man is behind bars after a stand-off with authorities Saturday night. It started around 7:00 pm on Highway 21 outside of Springfield. A couple was driving when they say a man rammed into the back of their car and took off. The couple pursued, trying to get his license number, and the man crashed off Albert Arnsdorff Road. The couple went to get help from a neighbor nearby and when they went back to the scene to check on the man, he had a gun, robbed them and stole the neighbors truck. Authorities were called, and spotted the man driving by Old Dixie and Sister Ferry Roads, where they chased him and he crashed again at Morgan Circle and Clyo Shawnee Road. A stand-off with the man ended after a few hours. Police arrested Jack Thorne and took him into custody, charging him with armed robbery, aggravated assault and posession of a fire-arm, with more charges pending. WTOC spoke with the couple who were sideswiped and then robbed. "I thought I was gonna die," Mark Lavin told WTOC. Not exactly the words you would want to describe a Saturday night. "We were just coming home for a peaceful evening and everything went a little haywire," Mark said. Mark and Brenda Lavin say their drive home along Highway 21 took an unexpected turn. "A car sideswiped us on Highway 21. I was sleeping and it woke me up," Mark said. "I said to my wife who was driving, .what was that? We had just got hit." The Lavin's weren't sure how much damage was done to their car and decided to follow the vehicle to get a license plate number. However, the man sped away and when they found him, they say his truck was overturned in a ditch. They went to get help from a neighbor, and all three people went back to the scene. "We were trying to make sure no one was bleeding to death in the car, under the car or thrown," Brenda said. "We hollered is anyone around." "The man came out of the woods and had a gun in his hand," Mark said. "And then when he came out with a gun, it was like, uh, we were all terrified. We didn't know what to do." "You look down the barrel of a gun, if you never have been in that situation, it's something you don't wanna do," Mark said. "I thought I was gonna die." Police say it was Jack Thorne. He allegedly stole money from the Lavins and the neighbor, and then took the neighbors' truck. That's when the police chase and stand-off happened. "We didn't find out until this morning from your website he had been apprehended," Brenda said. Thorn was arrested after keeping police at bay for several hours and threatening suicide. "Thankfully, everything turned out ok," Brenda said. The Lavins are safe, their car is banged up with minor damage, but from now on they may approach similar situations a little differently. "I've been someone who will stop and help," Mark said. "I will probably think twice about stopping again." Thorne is in police custody. His aunt helped police talk him into turning himself over and avoiding a suicide attempt.
