-Patrolman jared paulakovich: This is something
I've always wanted to do.
I'm second generation on this department
So it's what I've known for a long time.
I thoroughly enjoy being able to be the one that
Ruins the day of people who think they can't get caught.
My way of doing that is being extremely proactive
On the street, hunting dope, guns, and warrants.
We were flagged down
By the shawnee mission police department,
Which is a neighboring agency.
They believe that a red ford f-250
That was used in an armed robbery in their city
Has entered kansas city.

Do we have permission to continue to follow him?
-Paulakovich: Blown tire.
The front left is blown.
Front right is deflating.
He's smoking pretty good. Speed's 43 on the shoulder.
-Officer 2 (over radio): If he's slowing down
That much, they can go ahead and stay with him.
Safe to keep some lights on him.
And downtown is trying to block the road off of north.
-Paulakovich: He's got a tire blown.
He's getting off back on kansas avenue on the shoulder.
-Officer 1 (over radio): 10-22. He's actually gonna be continuing

-Officer (over radio): Murkin, call out to us.
Paulakovich: They just made contact with him inside the woods.
-Murkin (over radio): Oh, it's deep in the woods.
-Where, he's over there?
(loud police sirens and indistinct speaking on radio)
-Murkin (over radio): Very deep in the woods.
-Murkin!
Right through here?
(police sirens drown out speaking)
-Murkin: (indistinct) and then go straight.
So it kind of crossed that wooded area.
-The foot pursuit was ended by officer murkin.
Was able to apprehend our suspect back here in the woods
About a hundred yards
From where he bailed from his vehicle.
-Wake up.
(radio chatter and indistinct speaking)
-Any id on him or anything like that?
-No, all he had was his cell phone.
-Cell phone and lighter over here. -Okay.
Hey, man, can you tell us your name?
-Ain't nothing but ticks and fleas back here.
-Hey, man, wake up. We gotta get going. Come on.
-Ems is here now. You gotta breathe.
-You gotta breathe, dude.
-We were chasing this car because a robbery in shawnee,
The suspect allegedly robbed an amazon driver,
Punched him in the face and acted like he had a handgun.
As he's getting off the off ramp, I pulled up
They turned him around and then he drove down in this ditch.
He got stuck right there,
And the suspect bailed from the car. Once in the woods,
Got him stopped, muscled him to the ground
And taken into custody.
-We don't know if he took some type of narcotic
Or what it was but he started having some type of medical episode.
So ems had to respond.
They're able to get him in a bag and safely carry him
Out to where he'll be treated
For whatever injuries he has right now.
-Master deputy rebekah smith: We always say there's no routine call
There's no routine traffic stop.
So, you can't get complacent.
One of the most serious calls are domestic violence
Calls that are in progress.
You just never know what's gonna happen.
If someone's willing to hurt someone that they love,
Then they could care less about a stranger.
So we, we use extra caution.
-(police siren wailing) -so we're heading to a domestic
At a known house that we have domestics
With weapons and ongoing issues between a couple.
In the past, it's been very serious in a sense
That the female has filed several reports and the,
The male half has been arrested several times for domestic.
Where's he at?
In the house?
-(gasping and crying) in the house. -What is his name?
-(gasping and speaking indistinctly)
-Dejon? Dejo? -(gasping and speaking indistinctly)
And it's this one right here? On the side?
Yeah, just stay right here. Okay?
-Stay by the car.
What's his name?
-Dijon or dejon.
Hey, let, hey, let me see your hands.
Let me see your hands.
-Let me see your hands! -Hey, put your hands up!
-Do not! Do not!
-Suspect: No, no, no, no, no!
Hey, hey, hey I didn't do nothing! I didn't do nothing!
-Deputy rebekah: Give us the channel.
-Suspect: Please, please, please leave me
-I didn't do nothing. -On the ground!

I didn't do nothing.

-Baby girl are you serious right now?
-You wanna go in the house and sit down? I got ems coming. Okay?
-Where my dogs at?
-Yeah, let's go in there.
(sobbing)
-What kind of puppy you got?
-It's a blue pit. He's somewhere. Jojo?
-What's his name?
-It's jojo.
-Okay. Okay.
So how, how did we get to this point?
-I don't know.
We were eating and then I said I want him to get outta here.
-Uh-huh. -And then he flipped the (bleep) out
And he knocked something off the table.
And he made the guy who sleeps right there,
All the water got on him and he went upstairs.
-So there's somebody upstairs?
-No, it was josh, the one who called.
-The one, oh called, okay.
-Yeah. And he went upstairs
And then he just started beating the crap out of me.
And then I screamed.
-(indistinct) hey, hey, hey, hey, deep, deep breath.
-Sorry. Sorry, and then I told- -deep breaths, okay?
-Hold on. Hold on, no, no, you don't have to rush it.
-And I told him to call the police.
-Was he just punching you with a closed fist, or?
-Yeah. -Okay.
-He knocked everything off the table
And then he picked the table up and he smashed.
-Okay. -That's why it's broken.
-Let me see your arm.
-And that's when he threw the ashtray.
-He threw a ashtray at you? -(indistinct)
-This is the bag he had, right?
Does he do any type of narcotics?
I see the end of a needle cap, okay?
-Yeah. Yeah. -He does?
-What is it?
It's heroin?
Is there gonna be some in here?
-I don't know.
I don't, I think that's the reason why he's freaking out.
Maybe he hasn't had any in a couple days.
-Where's your roommate at?
Is he upstairs?
-Josh?
-Hey, it's deputy smith.
So like what, what transpired between, were you up here?
-I was up here. -And you just heard, like-
-I heard her say call the police. Call the police.
-So I called them. -And it was like, basically-
-It's just not the first time though. So.
-So it wasn't out of the ordinary? -Yeah, right.
-I hear you. What-
-I've never heard her scream call the police before.
-So it was bad, you knew-
-I knew it was bad. -You knew it was bad.
I called the police and I ran downstairs.

I mean, he destroyed the house and she's beat up pretty bad.
-Yeah. -So he was going to jail for the domestic
And he was in the back of his car
And he went completely unresponsive.
-Okay.
We found out from the roommate
That he did use heroin prior to us arriving on the scene.
So he's gonna be transported to get medically cleared
Before he goes down to (indistinct) detention center.
The roommate upstairs said it was an ongoing issue
Between the two, but she's never called out for help
And to call 9-1-1. So he knew it was serious at that time.

-And that it's so messed up.
He's been in jail so many times and-- -yep.
-All he can think to do is drink, and drink,
And drink, and drink, and drink, and complain about life.
And I become one of the complaints sometimes because
I'm a gay person. -Yeah.
-And I guess he doesn't like that.
I feel like in this situation, I need to leave -mm-hmm.
-Before it escalates. -Yep.
-Especially when he got a gun. -Mm-hmm.
-So all I thought was to call you guys 'cause I--
-But what happened that led up to you calling 9-1-1?
What did he have? What did he say? What did he do to you?
-Oh. Oh. So I walked out, but he was sitting
In his rocking chair that he had placed
Beside my driver's seat. -Yeah.
-Car. -Yeah.
-I didn't see him there. -Yeah.
-And all he said was,
Uh, yeah, walk back in there (bleep) pussy.

You (bleep) gay (bleep). That's what he said.
-Okay. -And I said, no, I'm not scared of you.
If I was, I wouldn't have turned around and been right here
In your face, with you this close to me spitting on me
Throwing beer at me, kicking me.
-Was he, was he purposely spitting on you, or was he just?

That's when he hit me after that.
-This, this is where he came up.
-Don't you dare touch me.
-Excuse me. Pardon me.
