Wild police video: Cops ram car driven by female armed robbery suspect — who actually tries to run away after freeway crash
In a wild police video out of Georgia last week, cops are seen ramming a car that was driven by a female armed robbery suspect — and she actually tried to run away after the jaw-dropping crash on an interstate. Atlanta police said the department's Auto Crimes Enforcement Unit on Wednesday assisted the DeKalb County Sheriff's Office in locating a vehicle and an armed robbery suspect accused of stealing an elderly woman's cell phone. The suspect quickly gets out of the vehicle and makes a run for it, hopping over the freeway divider. Atlanta police said officers found the vehicle and the suspect.

Image source: Atlanta police video screenshot But the suspect backed out of the car wash bay and fled from police, after which a pursuit ensued. WAGA-TV said the pursuit continued on Interstate 285. Atlanta police said officers utilized a PIT maneuver to end the pursuit. Indeed, video shows a patrol vehicle hitting the left bumper of the suspect's car, which spins out and travels backward along the left shoulder and freeway divider until it comes to a stop.

She also was charged with possession of a firearm by a convicted felon or first-offender probationer. You can view police dashcam and bodycam video of the chase and arrest below.
