A low-speed police pursuit unfolded just outside Kansas City, Missouri, culminating in a fiery spectacle on Sunday night. The chase concluded when the suspect’s dilapidated truck overturned and ignited, as captured in dramatic crime scene footage.

The suspect maneuvered into a wooded area behind his residence, abandoning the vehicle and fleeing on foot at approximately 11:20 p.m. Meanwhile, smoke was visibly billowing from the truck, as shown in footage from a deputy’s dashcam.

Not long after, the truck erupted into flames, with the fire spreading from the cab and extending several feet from the vehicle’s driver side.

An image from the deputy’s dashcam illustrates the aftermath of the chase, where a slow-speed vehicle pursuit transitioned into a foot chase across a field, resulting in the suspect’s truck catching fire.

“That moment when the suspect you’re pursuing ditches his old truck, which then bursts into flames and explodes, knocking it out of gear and sending it rolling into the unattended patrol car,” the Clay County Sheriff’s Office humorously noted in a Facebook post accompanying the video.

The deputy had left his vehicle to chase the suspect on foot, authorities said.

The Kansas City Fire Department put out the flames.

“Fortunately, no one was in the vehicles, they were off running in a field, so no one got hurt,” according to the sheriff’s office. “And we got the suspect into custody.”

According to local reporting, deputies first encountered the driver during a traffic stop. He allegedly had no plates on the vehicle and appeared “shaky” and under the influence, according to the Kansas City-based KCTV.

When a deputy asked him to exit the vehicle, he allegedly drove off at about 45 mph, according to the station.

A second deputy arrived, chocked the truck’s tires and backed the patrol vehicle to safety before it caught fire, too.

The sheriff’s office did not immediately respond to questions about what charges the suspect could face. His name was not immediately available.
