    For anyone wanting closure:
    The trooper eventually ended the pursuit shortly before 5 p.m. when the suspect veered into oncoming traffic on Middlebrook Pike near Ed Shouse Dr. due to the safety of other drivers.
    KPD officers later found the vehicle at Summit Towers on Locust Street around 6:30 p.m. THP said Haynes was found in one of the apartments, and was taken into custody without incident by KPD officers.
    He is charged with felony evading, reckless driving, speeding and several other driving-related offenses, according to the THP report.
    There are active warrants for Haynes' arrest in Knox and Union counties, according to THP, as well as the state of Virginia for felony larceny.
    Haynes had a preliminary hearing on February 14 and his case was sent to grand jury. He is still in jail

I can see this criminal was so close to kill anybody on the road that even tho he needed to be stopped ASAP the pursuit should have been called off way before...I bet you a million dollars he would not been able to outrun a helicopter from the cops or from the news...
      public safety first.
      In this case the trooper should have stop the pursuit the first time the bad guy drove straight onto incoming traffic...😢😢😢

      So you think maybe the police need better equipment? The pit maneuver is great technique if it’s executed appropriately and properly and you actually get the suspect that you’re chasing, but that maneuver failed at least 2 times, so you think maybe the police need better equipment or better training in how to do the maneuver properly?

At least this cop had good sense, at the end... where I live the cops are nationally known for being violent, they even got forced by the Feds to hire a judge overseer for years, for millions of dollars, to try to change them... but they didn't change. He expressed concern about that as he left.

    The man - identified by THP Sgt. Jeff Appleba as 42-year-old David J. Haynes Jr. - initially eluded capture after authorities decided the chase was too dangerous to continue.

    Will never understand why people think they can get away. If anything your increasing the chance when you do get caught the cops will be more likely to shoot you cause of the adrenaline from the chase. Not cause they want to shoot you. But cause when your full of adrenaline you make split second decision faster and with less thought.

    Knoxville police officers and a Tennessee Highway Patrol trooper arrested a man accused of leading authorities on a 20-minute-long, 100-mph car chase on Monday afternoon.
    The man - identified by THP Sgt. Jeff Appleba as 42-year-old David J. Haynes Jr. - initially eluded capture after authorities decided the chase was too dangerous to continue.
    "It was all over the place," Appleba said. "He was driving into oncoming traffic a couple times."
    Police arrested Haynes just before 6:30 p.m. after finding him inside the Summit Towers apartment complex on Locust Street near downtown Knoxville.
    Authorities arrest David J. Haynes Jr. at Summit Towers
    Appleba said the chase began in West Knoxville when he pulled over Haynes for not wearing a seat belt. Haynes, allegedly driving a 2001 Honda Civic, stopped the car on the shoulder of the Interstate 40 West on-ramp near West Town Way. When Appleba walked up to his window, Haynes sped away, Appleba said.
    "I got on westbound I-40, got off at Cedar Bluff (Road), went down Middlebrook Pike and ended up over at James White (Parkway)," Appleba said.
    Several Knox County sheriff's cruisers gave chase along with Appleba. A helicopter followed in the air.
    Haynes struck at least one vehicle on Middlebrook Pike, Appleba said, adding that to his knowledge, no one was injured.
    After about 20 minutes, authorities terminated the chase near Ed Shouse Drive because "it got dangerous," Appleba said. At times, speeds exceeded 100 mph, he said.
    Knoxville police later reported finding the Civic in the parking lot at Summit Towers. While officers were inspecting the banged-up car, a resident approached and told them where to find Haynes.
    Authorities went inside the apartment complex and emerged roughly 10 minutes later with Haynes in handcuffs. He was loaded into Appleba's vehicle.
    Haynes faces charges including felony evading arrest, reckless driving, driving with a revoked license, speeding, leaving the scene of a crash, improper passing, following too closely, possessing drug paraphernalia and "numerous more," according to a THP report.
    He had outstanding warrants out of Knox and Union counties, as well as out of Virginia on charges of felony larceny, according to the report.
    Authorities believe Haynes was driving with two female passengers, Appleba said. One, identified in the report as 40-year-old Amanda Lemon, was dropped off on Knott Road. Lemon was questioned and released by authorities. The other, unidentified passenger was at Summit Towers, Appleba said.
    Haynes has a lengthy criminal history in Knox County that dates back to 1993. He has been convicted of various drug crimes, driving on a revoked or suspended license, evading arrest on foot, possessing brass knuckles, public intoxication, forgery and shoplifting, according to court records.

A miracle no one was hurt or killed. Those speeds were insane. A head on collision on one of those wrong way wild rides could have ended several lives - and for what? It’s almost always the innocents who are hurt or killed. I think pursuits should be outlawed except in extremely rare circumstances.

    If the suspect steals a car & then runs 20 miles while being chased by the police, he should be sentenced for the theft (5 years) & then sentenced to another 20 years for endangering innocent lives.

    High speed police chases and chases of stollen vehicles are NEVER a good idea. Usually, 90% of the time they end with innocent motorists injured or killed and several innocent motorist's vehicles damaged or totally destroyed. Letting the offender get away costs nothing. The pursuit causing a disastrous accident is the worst outcome possible. The loss or an officer's life is worth far more than any stolen vehicle. The medical care costs and disability costs of any injured office is worth far more than the value of any stolen vehicle is.
