7/9/20 @ 2:45am - While filming an overnight NS grain train coming into Kankakee at a crossing for the next 'Railroad Crossings of the Midwest' video, I found myself in the middle of a police chase that came up out of no where. The suspect vehicle circled mine as Kankakee County Sheriffs and Kankakee City Police officers chased then attempted to box in the suspect. The Norfolk Southern train blocks him from crossing, but not for long. The suspect then takes to the right of way after circling around the factory on the right. Overall, it's far beyond what I expected. I was shaken up, but okay. The police attempted to box the suspect in the lot next to me off camera. When that failed the suspect continued west onto the road that ended at another grade crossing. At this point he/she drove onto the railroad tracks after the EOT passed and back to the Greenwood Ave crossing.
