I-270 shooting - Helicopter video 

WHY WOULD YOU HAVE THIS ON FOR AN HOUR WITH NO CONCLUSION.

What sort of idiot stops the coverage there? We just invested an hour of our lives to see how these criminals are sorted out and got cut off as he is attempting a carjacking. Suggest you never do this to us again.

10/10 for the chopper crew, ZILCH for the genius who decided to abruptly cut at the end, effectively giving those of us who followed the action for an hour or more, the middle finger. Same to you, Bruno.

Tom , I agree with you 100% And I said this before I think when people go this far in a vehicle they're willing to do anything to get away they should be charged the same as if a person was to shoot a gun into a crowd of people. It may not stop it from happening again but eventually we'd get a big majority of the idiots off the highways.

dont spend more than an hour watching this when the video stops just when the real action starts. Glad i fast forward through them in case of ones like this

These cops were as aggressive as a snail in trying to stop this dude!

Thanks for cutting it off right when it gets interesting. Seeing a resolution after watching over an hour of footage is SO overrated.

If you want to see a video of a shooting on I-270 you've come to the wrong channel

This is craxy for anyone to do. Driving against oncoming traffic puts many innocent lives at risk. People like this do not deserve any mercy from the system.

Don’t waste your time on this worthless video. Cuts off right when the action starts

Word to the wise: Whenever you watch a new police chase video on youtube, check the comments first to see whether or not anyone is saying that the video is a waste of time. Because there seems to like a 25% chance that very little happens, or the only part worth watching is at the end. The ending where the suspect was going the wrong way at like 80 mph was pretty crazy tho

After being invested in this for an hour I can't begin to explain my anger when this video just ended. This is some bullsh#*

Wtf, I watched this dude run for over an hour and you end the video just when it’s about to get good. Cheap shot!!

Glad I fast forward through these videos

Who else just skipped to the end?

If you're not going to show this til the very end, why bother showing it at all?

Frustrating it ended before the outcome. Turns out the officers exchanged gunfire with the assailant and killed him.

Just skip ahead to @1:10:00 you'll thank me later

This driver should be locked up and never let out again. Just by driving in oncoming traffic, he put the lives of dozens of people in danger.

Waste of time, thankfully I fast forwarded to the end and did not waste an hour.

Don't waste your time - start the video at 1:07:27 SPOILER - the video cuts off after he jumps out of the car, no confrontation shown. That being said, the police did an amazing job protecting lives while keeping this guy in their sights.

There is an hour of my life I will never get back

Cops did so good playing the long game and blew it at the end, ended up putting more people at risk than if they just ended it at the beginning.

darn it, watched this for an hour and 12 minutes and they cut it short with him not getting shot

Extremely frustrating over an hour of build up for it to end as the finale starts. That guy deserved what he got. He endangered so many people during his crazy drive. Jumping red lights when it wasn't necessary. I hope that the occupants of the car he hit were OK.

Well, crap! After an hour and 10 minutes, why not show the ending????

The absolute worst ending in history. Whoever made this video should be charged with something.

I'm so glad I didn't watch the full hour. The title led me to believe there would be a shooting in the video, but there wasn't. You might say the video has a misleading title.

The world breathed a little better when he took his last. Wow, what a misfit!

Attn :::: attention don't waste another second of your time watching this you're going to see nothing but the same until the end and then just when it gets good they cut the video off. The most amazing thing about this video is cops are actually doing their jobs for a change Honestly though I must take my hat off to them they did a great job saving lives

Watched the whole chase and didn't get to see him taken into custody!!!!! 😡😡😡😡😡

I REALLY wish that the coverage would continue to the end of the pursuit! We who Re watching would really like to see the denouement.

Do what your told when getting pulled over so you don’t die.

All these cops must know the layout of the entire city. If a street is called out they know where to go from where they are at, impressive to me.

WARNING TO ANYONE CLICKING ON THIS VID: NOTHING HAPPENS! SPEND AN HOUR AND TEN MINUTES SOMEWHERE ELSE. THIS VIDEO CUTS OFF WITH NO RESOLVE.

This was great hearing the crews and the radio transmissions. Thanks for sharing this.

Follow from behind chopper, and NEVER on the suspects drivers side, always passenger side in his blind spot!

37:32 he stops and attempts to turn around on the freeway, ends up going the wrong way on the freeway 37:47 3 or 4 police cars pull up around him, he nearly backs into an officer while maneuvering around the police cars 37:50 (ish) has a near miss with another police car, ends up going the wrong way up a ramp 40:47 turns into an alley to avoid traffic 48:00 “passing a Wendy’s” 1:01:50 he wants to turn left but has to stop due to heavy oncoming traffic 1:07:30 he stops briefly, then turns around and goes the wrong way on the freeway w/2 cop cars following 1:10:32 collides w/oncoming car

How to save an hour, skip to end lol

Where can I sign a petition to equip police choppers with Hellfire missiles?

Video stops before the action. Don’t waste your time watching over an hour of leisurely driving.

"I lost him he was too fast.." in a KIA suv... the most useless bunch I ever saw. An HOUR?????????

Being a retired cop, I'm glad to see that various governments haven't lost the ability to waste more time with various new procedures. I like the new requirement to get permission to do a pursuit. Wonders never cease!!

Hyundai Sonata! That’s like a speeding coke can.

What stopped the police from ramming him when he did the u on the highway? They had him all but pinned him.

I believe they cut off the ending of the video on purpose. If you go to the link on the full news story you'll find out that he was shot in the back six times and killed by a law enforcement officer. That might not look good for that cop. The story says that the guy started shooting at the cops from behind a car and that a gun was found near him. I believe he was shot by the cop that came from the other side of the freeway and got behind him as he was shooting at the other cops.

All cities and states should aprove a law that fines the runaway vehicle for the time the chase is in place.

You can devote an hour and 20 minutes to the stinking chase, but not show the finish.

I rewatched this after a year and a thought occurred to me: the last hour of this man's life was tracked, minute to minute, mile by mile.

The supervisor asks the same questions answered multiple times. Guys can't even piss without permission. What a joke

He was shot and killed on the scene shortly after getting out of his vehicle. Thankfully, no life threatening injuries occurred to anyone involved in the crash. Thank God!

tell you what is crazy, watching a car drive around for an hour.

Police hopeless at stopping, or even keeping up with this fool. At one point, there was an ideal chance to pit him on a practically empty road.

Too bad there's not an easy way to get 18-wheelers to cooperate to block all lanes

Extremely frustrating ... video stops when the action starts.

We can watch graphically violent movies, play video games where you can make kill shots to the head, etc, but they won't show a scumbag who put lot's of people's lives in danger and possibly actually injured some, get riddled with bullets. What the h?

Well, u tube cut off my post before so I’ll use niceynice language this time. If you zoom in on the last 10 frames of this video, you can plainly see the perpetrator clearly takes out his gun and points it at the folks in the blue colored car at the very end. Trying to carjack them to get away? Who knows.

Save your time. Watch a tree grow. More interesting! Plus it may have an ending!

When helicopters are chasing me my favorite place to drive is under a thing called controlled air space.

The car changed colour when it turned into the bridge 😂

I wonder why these fools think they can outrun a radio !

Nice chopper tour of Columbus. I feel like I was born there.

They should have called the Arkansas State Police they would have ended the chase in about 10 minutes.

Know this was 2 years ago but it just popped up in my feed. That someone could careless about others on the road is just horrendous. If they don’t care about their life then why put others in danger!?

I really should have read a few comments before wasting an hour for this ending. I just want to say great job by all officers involved. Now all of you are fired. Blame the person who shut off this video🤣🤣🤣.

They never purposely show an officer (or anyone else) in an exchange of gunfire. That’s why it cut away so abruptly. As others have said, there was a shootout with law enforcement and he was finally killed by an officer. Apparently a really bad guy!!!

If it was too graphic, all you had to do was blur it out instead of cutting the video off NBC Columbus!

if he had stayed home, chilled out, and played the bongos, none of this would have happened. #StayHomeChillOutPlayTheBongos

He was an instructor for the church choir, I’m certain he was on his way there to teach the youth.

Should've posted the whole thing after the wreck smh.

They should follow the Phoenix Police example with plenty of unmarked cars and trucks that surrowd the culprit without he or she notice it.

MIDDLE FINGER ALERT. I began following chase and advanced to the end as is my usual practice now. Sure enough. Chase called. Saved a lot of time. Now, I don't get left hanging.

What makes these people think that they can get away from a hilicopter with using a just a vehicle???

Kudos to Police chopper pilots!

Everyone complaining about the end>>> This is a news feed... blood and guts are NOT part of the deal!

I’m buying a ‘KIA’. this things a lightweight Hummer’

You cut the video off THERE? WTF?

The supervisor was the problem. He should have let his men Pitt him out, instead of allowing ppl to be endangered.

The amount of unskippable ads on a video like this is ridiculous. Really trying to profit as much as possible from this kind of thing aren't ya?

What’s the point of watching this, to not see the end of it? And the pursuit was almost over before there was any mention of stop sticks. Can anyone explain this? I totally understand the liability involved with police pursuits and the safety of the public, but where were the stop sticks way earlier in the chase?

No. Columbus handled the pursuit properly. They had their units back off and was monitoring the suspect via helicopter with a second helicopter prepared to take over when the first one got too low on fuel. When Columbus backed off the chopper pilots reported that the perp was - for the most part - moving at normal speeds. It wasn't until the Franklin County Sheriff's Dept. units approached the vehicle near the end (despite Columbus telling its CPD units to back off) that the perp panicked and began going the wrong direction on the freeway. The crash was the result of the Sheriff Deputies' unwise actions. At the request of dispatch, the chopper had climbed to 2000 feet at about halfway through the chase - well out of view of a motorist concentrating on driving/fleeing. With (I believe 4) police choppers in their fleet, they could have followed this guy all day until he bailed or ran out of gas. He wasn't going to get away. When the chase was on Cleveland Avenue (the Linden area of Columbus) and there were no police cars in sight, believe me, that was intentional. I live in that area and you can't swing a dead cat without hitting a cop car. Since the city acquired helicopters about 20 years ago, they adopted a "no hot pursuit" policy once the aircraft are involved. As you saw, it is just too dangerous for innocent people.

Absolutely incredible the helicopter had enough fuel to endure this chase!! And whoever is handling the camera on board is excellent. Pretty nice not to see 25% of the bottom of screen eaten up by network banner replete with stock ticker, breaking news, weather, and oh yeah station ID and advertising obscuring the action in full opacity :)

What the frack! Don’t post this stuff if it doesn’t have an ending. What the hell is that, over a one hour video only to cut out right at the end. Pissed!

Y’know, a sidewinder missile would come in handy about now.

What a waste of time !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Fascinating listening to the great teamwork between the spotter & pilot but so, so frustrating to not see it through to the end …. WTF happened to him???

All that foreplay, just to have your parents walk in 🤣. Lame.

Well now that I’ve read the comments, I’m outta here, I’ll go watch some Korea cooking shows. 😩

Where it gets good 1:08:00

The sucks when you watch that much video and they don't show the takedown.

That was as exciting as knitting a g string.

Lesson to you all, fast forward the hour-long vids and get to the point, then go back and look if it's worth it 😂

Ditto on Rose's comment, and thank you Rose for providing the ending that 500 plus people watched for over an hour!!!!! (sigh)

Wow! If this guy has the Progressive Snapshot Discount, he's really screwed for sure, eh? ;-)

Really watched the whole video and abruptly end no arrest! Urg!

Just an FYI, the feed is cut right when he gets in a gunfight with cops, but the crash right before that was epic. Skip the hour long chase.

B.S. with a cut off video feed.

I feel so bad for the people he head-on crashed into at the end. That has to be fucking devastating

What’s the since of showing it if you can’t see the end?

37:43 - 37:49 in video duration: They should have opened fire on this driver for almost hitting that Police Officer with his vehicle, He could have stated that he felt his life was threated which it was by the way; especially at the 37:49 marker in the time duration of this video (It would have been the perfect kill shot). - I know what happens at the end of this persuit, so know that I think about it I would have no regrets whatsoever. Thats why its so important to know your "Rights" Brothers and Sisters. According to the description of this video it states Felonious Assult (50a) don't know what that really is but if he was involved with shooting someone that would have been another indicator to shoot him down. Plus he was about to drive into the opposite flow of traffic, and don't recall in the video if he had other priors of doing that; but that should have been another indicator that he was very dangerous (I would have to rewatch this video to make a better judgement)... And this is me going off of "my" own untrained mind, unlike these trained professionals that probably have or have had many years of training. In 36:47 the driver/suspect does a complete stop and reverses right on an off ramp to the Freeway, to continue onto it. 1:07:30 (Please take note that this also almost/nearly caused another vehicle accident as a truck hauling a trailer stopped right behind it and another vehicle swerved to the right shoulder - Oh no I was wrong the vehicles on the shoulder were Police Officers Patrol Vehicles). 4:11 - 4:17 They suspected that he was armed, and Im assuming that all Police Officers receive a brief summary of this information in real time; if not that needs to change asap... Which would have given me more of a reason to shot him on site. At 27:29 through 27:39 he almost caused an accident, when he made that illegal U-Turn that forced the other vehicles to swerve out the way. AND that's not even including all of the red light passes and near car misses, traveling at top speeds.
