This High-Speed Chase of a U-Haul GMC Savana Is Pure Chaos

On Wednesday, February 7, Police chased two men in a $19.95-per-day U-Haul GMC Savana from Locust Grove, Oklahoma to Tontitown, Arkansas in a chaotic high-speed pursuit. According to Tontitown police, speeds during the chase reached over 120 mph before the two Michigan natives were finally caught with firearms and Molotov cocktails (or improved flammable devices) in their possession. Thankfully, no one was seriously injured in the chase.

The chase finally ended when one Tontitown officer used a "tactical vehicle intervention" (TVI) maneuver to spin the van into a highway barrier. After that, more police cars were able to surround the van and make the arrests. The officer who executed the TVI maneuver ended up spinning into the grass alongside the highway and rolling several times. They were taken to a nearby hospital but suffered only minor injuries and has since been released. Several other police cars were damaged in the chase and arrest but no other officers were hurt.

Tontitown police department also said that the fleeing van hit another car head-on in Oklahoma but didn't say if anyone in the other car was injured. Hopefully, those passengers weren't hurt.
