RECKLESS Career Criminal Meets the MIGHTY ARKANSAS STATE POLICE-Big Mistake!

North Little Rock, Arkansas On 7/3/25 at approximately 0704 hours I conducted a traffic stop at the intersection of W 34th and Burks on a 2014 white Ford Fusion (LPN GARRS) for disobeying a stop sign. We turned east on W 34th and the driver (Derek Baker) slowed down as if he was going to stop but then he continued on 34th and turned south onto Pike. He ran the red light at 34th and Pike then began accelerating and continued southbound passing 33rd and Pike. I then activated my emergency lights siren and we continued southbound. We headed southbound on Percy Machin turning east on to Pershing. Once on Pershing Baker did a U turn and headed back north on Percy Machin. We then went onto the I40 east on ramp and Baker began driving on the shoulder as we were getting on the interstate. We then continued east on I40 speeds were 80mph and I advised dispatch to notify ASP for assistance. We then took I30 west speeds were 98mph medium traffic. Continued westbound on I30 speeds 75mph and Baker was weaving in and out of traffic. Continued westbound to the I30/630 split speeds 109mph medium traffic.
