The pick-up that pulled in front of him at the end was actually a
local L/E unit. There is much more to the story and for the reason
they didn't take him out earlier. The driver also advised the dispatcher
via cell that he had a bomb ready to go off in his vehicle.
The decision was made to let him get out of the Metroplex
for safety reasons.
What you saw during the start was due to the fact that
the Dallas PD will only stand back and not take out a fleeing
vehicle from another jurisdiction. A similar pursuit occurred
prior to this and many of the officers involved were written
up for their actions.
Lots of departments involved and lots of wet concrete covered
in clay and mud from recent floods. that stuff is like ice in some areas
when it gets wet. Glad everyone made it home safe.
Damn rear left rim on that F-150 held up forever.
