Dashcam footage shows the moment that a high-speed police chase ended with a cruiser on top of a flatbed trailer, before the police vehicle flipped over moments later.

The pursuit began after authorities tried to conduct a traffic stop on Saturday (28 February). The driver, identified as Iesha Harris, was wanted on outstanding warrants for assault and possession of weapons while under disability.

Harris fled the scene, which led to a 90-minute pursuit through multiple states.

Footage released by Cincinnati Police depicts the final moments of the chase, with the police cruiser atop the trailer falling off and rolling several times before coming to rest on its side. Harris’s vehicle then collides with a tree before catching fire.

An officer and Harris went to the hospital with minor injuries, according to police. They said additional charges related to the pursuit would be announced.
