Body camera footage shows an officer pursuing the suspect through a parking lot before tackling him. As officers placed him in handcuffs, the suspect said, “OK guys, you got me. Can I buy you dinner?”
He was taken to the Jefferson County Jail and issued a summons for multiple violations, including failure to present insurance, driving without a valid license, misuse of plates and obstruction, FOX 31 reported. He also had a warrant in another county for failing to appear on a traffic citation.
Police later said the suspect did not follow through on the dinner offer, writing on social media that “his dinner date at the Jefferson County Jail took precedent.”
