Dashcam video captured the moment a stolen SUV, driven by a 17-year-old, barreled through a Georgia residential area and flipped in a rollover crash after leading deputies on a 115-mph chase.
Video released by the Fayette County Sheriff’s Office shows the teen refusing to stop for deputies, speeding along busy roadways and driving into oncoming traffic during the pursuit.
The sheriff’s office said deputies were alerted to a stolen vehicle reported out of Newnan, Georgia, a city approximately 40 miles southwest of Atlanta, shortly before 2:45 p.m. on Wednesday. After hearing the description, Lt. Josh Akin began searching for a red SUV.
After the red SUV blew past Akin and Deputy Sheriff Nelson near Antioch Road, the driver, police said, ignored an attempted traffic stop and initiated a high-speed flight.
