A woman led Ohio police on a 10-mile, nearly 30-minute chase last week, driving the wrong way and colliding with a pursuing cruiser before trying to elude officers on foot.
The chase began shortly after 5:30 p.m. May 17 when Sharonville police tried to stop a vehicle spotted for a phony license violation, WCPO-TV reports. But the driver—identified as Alicia Joyce Bryant, 54—sped from the scene, and officers gave pursuit.
During the chase, Bryant, who was warranted on an outstanding warrant in Bulter County, hit speeds of over 100 mph and refused orders to stop. At one point, she traveled the wrong way along Interstate 275 and struck a cruiser.
Police then deployed stop sticks along her route, deflating her tires. Bryant tried to escape police a final time by fleeing her vehicle on foot, but she was apprehended.
Bryant was arrested and faces multiple charges, including driving with a fictitious license plate violation driving with a suspended license.
A 45-year-old man who also was in the vehicle was arrested and charged with tampering with evidence.
Gabbard also had an open warrant through the Ohio Parole Authority.
There were no injuries as a result of the incident.
