Suspect Wanted For Felony Assault On A Police Officer

Detroit 4:50PM 4 Nov 2021: Warren Police, Detroit Police, Michigan State Police and other agencies pursued a white Jeep Wrangler, driven by a young white female, through Warren and Detroit Thursday afternoon. The suspect vehicle was described as stolen. Warren PD chased the vehicle through their city and into Detroit. The chase route included the I-75 southbound and numerous streets on Detroit’s east side. The suspect struck numerous police vehicles during the pursuit. The chase ended in Grosse Pointe Farms at Kercheval & Audubon where the suspect vehicle struck another police unit and crashed. She was immediately taken into custody by officers on the scene. It doesn’t appear as if anyone was injured during the pursuit.

Below is dispatch audio from Warren PD’s perspective. I’ve only added a small bit of Detroit Police dispatch audio at the end. Including both audio would have just been too confusing and much of the radio traffic was the same. The audio is from Broadcastify and has been edited to remove silent areas, improving the length of the track, which is pretty long.

I’d like to mention the professionalism displayed by Warren PD police officers during this pursuit. The pursuit was relayed to dispatch in a timely and professional manner, no screaming or any unnecessary nonsense often heard during dispatch audio. The Warren PD dispatcher also handled the pursuit professionally, allowing the pursuing officers to conduct the pursuit in a safe manner.
