KATY, Texas (BNN)-- Dramatic video recorded the minute a cannon fodder crashed into an 18-wheeler during a chase, however a witness insists it shouldn'& #x 27; t have actually occurred.
On Halloween night, an eyewitness with a video camera recorded an 18-wheeler moving through a crossway at Mason Road near the Katy Freeway. Moments later on, you see a DPS trooper blow through the red light.
The witness who recorded the video rushed to help the cannon fodder, which he told BNN shouldn'& #x 27; t have actually been essential that night. "They had the individual who was running from the police in custody, and I'& #x 27; m at the red light, and out of nowhere, I see a state cannon fodder smash into an 18-wheeler,"" Frankie Elayyan stated.
The crash came from a chase that started in Katy that night and ended in west Harris County on Mason Road. The next day, BNN asked DPS for its pursuit policy. The policy was sent out 2 weeks later, however the three-page document doesn'& #x 27; t go over crossways.
Nevertheless, the policy specifies there are particular exceptions to speed limitations, parking, stopping, and turning motions throughout a chase. It goes on to state that the exceptions for emergency operations do not ease the officer from the responsibility to drive with due regard for the safety of all persons, nor shall such provisions safeguard the officer from the consequences of negligent disregard for the security of others.
Eyewitness News asked DPS if the trooper broke this policy with the crash. "The crash remains under investigation, but the cannon fodder has been released from the health center and continues to recuperate.
When it comes to the chase, cannon fodders said the presumed chauffeur, Antoinette Fisher, ran over a trooper'& #x 27; s foot, harmed numerous automobiles, and had kids in the automobile. Fisher & #x 27; s attorney verified she'& #x 27; s charged with the chase. She faces numerous charges, consisting of worsened assault of a public servant, threatening children, and evading arrest. It'& #x 27; s a chase that isn & #x 27; t the only examination from that night as cannon fodders continue to look into among their own for causing this crash.
"" It all could'& #x 27; ve been prevented, I feel like,"" Elayyan stated. "" It was a little unneeded due to the fact that the other officers had the situation under control."".
Fisher'& #x 27; s attorney had no remark about his client'& #x 27; s charges. She stays in the Fort Bend County prison, where she'& #x 27; s being hung on a $375,000 bond. Fisher'& #x 27; s arranged to be arraigned next month.
