March 3, 2024 - Little Rock, Arkansas
Little Rock Police Officer locates a stolen vehicle. When the officers attempt to make contact with the driver, he takes off leading LRPD on a dangerous pursuit through the city.

EDIT to add this link to Trooper Byrd's full video: • LEGEND TROOPER BYRD RE...
**********
Trooper Byrd's Report:
On March 5, 2024, approximately 5:02PM, Little Rock Police Department (LRPD) contacted Arkansas State Police Troop A
Dispatch requesting assistance with a pursuit of a stolen Nissan Altima white in color displaying Arkansas AVJ58D (V1). The
pursuit was in the area of Roosevelt Road and Springer Blvd heading southbound.
I (Trp. Byrd) responded to the area of Interstate 440 eastbound (I440E) at Springer Blvd. The pursuit merged onto I440E from
Springer Blvd and continued to Fourche Dam, Exit 5. At this point, V1 abruptly exited cutting off multiple vehicles while driving
recklessly through a red light at the intersection of Fourche Dam and the I440E ramps. When V1 failed to stop at the red light,
cross traffic had to abruptly stop to avoid a collision. V1 merged back onto I440E where I was able to become the primary unit
in the pursuit. I immediately caught up to V1 to attempt to a TVI, but V1 braked and swerved to the left to avoid me. I
successfully performed a TVI immediately after that causing V1 to leave the roadway to the right. Once V1 came to a final rest,
the driver of V1 (S1) was taken into custody.
LRPD took custody of S1 and charged S1 with the following:
5-36-103: THEFT OF PROPERTY = $5,000 - $25,000
5-54-125(d)(3): FLEEING - FELONY - VEHICLE OR CONVEYANCE - SUBSTANTIAL DANGER OF DEATH
5-71-218: OPEN CONTAINER CONTAINING ALCOHOL IN MOTOR VEHICLE

    What a SIIIIIICK pit by Officer Byrd! Suspect suddenly changed speed and direction, but Office Byrd adjusted in a fraction of second, and slowly pushed the back of the car sideway... less the 8 seconds as the lead chse car... I wouldn't even be surprised if there's not a single mark on any of the cars invoved! INSANELY clean executed textbook TVI. Byrd's legend TVI status is FULLY earned! Props to everyone involved in this pursuit.

    I autocross with Byrd. He's not bad. He just needs a quicker vehicle to end things sooner. That's his biggest complaint. He catches up to the quickest vehicles in corners though. It's all about the cornering techniques. Good tires pkay a vital role too. Most perps don't have the best high performance tires

He’d make an awesome trooper as well… just like the ByrdMan. Salute! 🦅

He is the legend, and this dude running should have asked for his autograph... LOL. In fact, ASP, I respectfully request a picture of Trooper Byrd with his autograph!!!!!!

    That move Byrd did was magic, where the suspect drove to the left side of the semi, then Trooper Byrd immediately touched the brakes steered left and got back on his ass and it was all over within seconds. This move is very technical, but Byrd makes it look easy.

    Bravo to ALL OF THE OFFICERS in this pursuit. It takes teamwork to get the job done, but Jacob Byrd is like the Michael Jordan of the ASP. If EVERY state patrol had a Jacob Byrd on their roster there wouldn’t be a lot of dangerous pursuits that end in tragedy. I continue to be amazed at the professionalism of Trooper Byrd. One other thing: He’s got a Marine DI build. Would love to know what his workout routine is. I’m guessing his body fat is .000000001%. He’s a lean mean TVI expert machine. Well done Trooper Byrd.

    Arizona has a good chase policy too. They have a "pursuit taskforce" that takes over on every chase. You don't see many chases from Arizona because they end them before the news choppers can get there. I've seen a few chases where you don't see any marked police cars chasing, but suddenly the perp gets caught in a wall of traffic and brought to a stop, at which point every unmarked car within half a block starts sprouting police officers. Arizona also pioneered the Grappler. No need for PITs when you can lasso them.

I’ve always believed you perform as well as the effort you put into your appearance and health.

Once he was in pursuit of a suspect he chased them till he stopped them . He even pitted some some of the suspects were drug dealers or armed robbery suspects. We need more cops like that protecting law abiding citizens. If people being stopped by police for some reason would just pull over and cooperate things would be much safer for all.
