The driver did not stop for police lights and sirens, and the chase moved onto Interstate 395 and Route 2, reaching speeds of up to 120 mph. After a stop stick deflated one tire and two intentional collisions were made with authorization from a sergeant, the Accord crashed into the median guardrail.

* (Disclaimer: The content in this video is intended for educational and informational purposes only) Norwich, Connecticut — On November 24, 2025, shortly before noon, Connecticut State Trooper Wilfred Blanchette observed a silver 2006 Honda Accord on Route 2A in Montville speeding and driven by Jesus Santiago of Manchester, CT, and which was also occupied by Tyloine Reddick of an unknown address. The license plates on the Accord did not belong on that vehicle but in fact were assigned to a black BMW. According to his incident report, Trooper W. Blanchette also believed that the operator of the vehicle may have been intoxicated. Despite activating his police lights and sirens, the operator of the Accord failed to stop and instead proceeded onto Interstate 395 northbound. The Accord continued north until it exited I-395 at Exit 13B and entered Route 2 westbound. During the pursuit, the Accord and the cruiser driven by Trooper W. Blanchette reached speeds as high as 120 mph. On Route 2, another state trooper deployed stop sticks, which were successful in deflating one of the tires of the Accord, but the pursuit continued at somewhat lesser speeds. Trooper W. Blanchette sought authorization to perform an intentional collision with the Accord to end the pursuit. Permission was granted by Sergeant Gordon L. Leslie of the Connecticut State Police. Trooper W. Blanchette then intentionally collided with the rear quarter panel of the Accord at a speed in excess of 75 mph, but the collision was unsuccessful in stopping the vehicle. Trooper W. Blanchette next performed another intentional collision, which caused the operator of the Accord to lose control of his car and crash into the center-median guardrail of Route 2 and come to a complete stop. Trooper Noah Blanchette was traveling behind Trooper Wilfred Blanchette during the pursuit and collision. Other responding troopers then attempted to remove the two occupants of the Accord from the vehicle. Santiago complied with officer demands to put his hands in the air, and he was placed under arrest without further incident. Reddick was taken into custody after a brief struggle during which a K-9 officer bit Reddick in the left leg. Both Santiago and Reddick refused medical attention at the scene and were charged with various motor vehicle and narcotics offenses. 🚨𝑇ℎ𝑖𝑠 𝑐ℎ𝑎𝑛𝑛𝑒𝑙 𝑝𝑟𝑜𝑣𝑖𝑑𝑒𝑠 𝑐𝑜𝑛𝑡𝑒𝑥𝑡𝑢𝑎𝑙 𝑑𝑜𝑐𝑢𝑚𝑒𝑛𝑡𝑎𝑡𝑖𝑜𝑛 𝑎𝑛𝑑 𝑎𝑛𝑎𝑙𝑦𝑠𝑖𝑠 𝑜𝑓 𝑟𝑒𝑎𝑙 𝑝𝑜𝑙𝑖𝑐𝑒 𝑖𝑛𝑐𝑖𝑑𝑒𝑛𝑡𝑠 𝑢𝑠𝑖𝑛𝑔 𝑝𝑢𝑏𝑙𝑖𝑐𝑙𝑦 𝑎𝑣𝑎𝑖𝑙𝑎𝑏𝑙𝑒 𝑟𝑒𝑐𝑜𝑟𝑑𝑠. ⚠️𝑉𝑖𝑒𝑤𝑒𝑟 𝑑𝑖𝑠𝑐𝑟𝑒𝑡𝑖𝑜𝑛 𝑖𝑠 𝑎𝑑𝑣𝑖𝑠𝑒𝑑 𝑑𝑢𝑒 𝑡𝑜 𝑡ℎ𝑒 𝑠𝑒𝑟𝑖𝑜𝑢𝑠 𝑛𝑎𝑡𝑢𝑟𝑒 𝑜𝑓 𝑡ℎ𝑒 𝑐𝑜𝑛𝑡𝑒𝑛𝑡.⚠️ ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Special thanks to Shout-Out Supporters on Patreon: - 'DIY Solar Power with Will Prowse' - 'The Evil Queen' - Benjamin Osgood - Gary Wilson - LJ - Chase - Tavia Shields - Edward Aquino - Brianna Wilkins - Eian Smith - brandon - William - Hunter - Cammy - Elisabeth Craig - Bobby Roach - Sarin Dip
