BESSEMER — Bessemer authorities chased a man for 10 miles early Tuesday morning after the suspect stole a police vehicle during a traffic stop, according to ABC 33/40.
Dexter Le Jordan was pulled over in a traffic stop when police smelled marijuana, so they brought in a drug dog. During the search the suspect ran to a police vehicle and fled the scene.
Jordan left the vehicle after a 10-mile chase and attempted to elude police on foot, though he was taken into custody.
Six pounds of marijuana were found inside the suspect’s vehicle.
