The Events That Led To The High-Speed Chase
According to the outlet, Nebraska state troopers attempted a traffic stop of the Pathfinder around 9:35 p.m. on Monday. The vehicle was initially driving 35 miles per hour on Interstate 80, which is under the posted minimum speed limit.
When a trooper attempted to pull the car over, the driver accelerated and fled east on the interstate. Authorities say the car hit speeds over 100 miles per hour.
During the pursuit, authorities used “stop sticks” and “a tire deflation device” to slow the vehicle down. Troopers were able to finally put the vehicle to a stop after it exited the interstate and lost speed.
As it fled eastbound on I-80, another trooper was able to successfully deploy stop sticks at mile marker 288 to slow the vehicle. The suspect vehicle then exited I-80 at the Shelton interchange and began traveling northbound at slower speeds.
The chase lasted approximately 16 minutes, as reported by the outlet.
