A dramatic police pursuit ended with a suspect’s arrest after he attempted to evade authorities by disassembling a firearm and hiding it in the woods. During the chase, the suspect ran across a rooftop, jumped 16 feet, and fled into nearby wooded areas.

In a strange twist, he left behind the tools used to disassemble the gun on the roof but managed to partially reassemble the firearm before placing it in a box out in the open, where officers eventually recovered it. Despite the complex maneuvers, authorities apprehended the suspect without further incident.

The incident underscores both the risks posed by armed suspects during flight and the diligence of law enforcement in securing public safety. Officials emphasized that attempts to hide firearms or tamper with evidence can complicate investigations but are unlikely to prevent accountability. The suspect now faces charges related to firearm possession, evasion, and obstruction of justice.
