So much for stealing a car that lost what value it had. What pisses me off the most is that these thieves put other lives in danger.

Shame no audio, it's nice to get clear video while hearing engines/radios and such.

That dude at the beginning was probably thinking he was going to get pulled over. lol He was probably so happy to see that dude hit the cop

I lost the car like 3-4 times watching the video. The officer is a great driver and a great policeman too.

I have to say that many of the other drivers on the road could tell what was going on and made an extra effort to clear the way for the trooper. Some videos like this looks like the drivers are asleep.

We need prisons where inmates work to earn their keep and reimburse the people they've hurt.

Incredible tenacity and great driving from the police officer. I hope the driver gets jail time after all of that display of wanton homicidal recklessness.

Incredible job by this officer! I lost the car at least 3 times. This man has eyes like a hawk! Thank you, officer ♥️

The driving skills and the memory of this cop is isane give this man some raise!

That cop is a damn good driver

Excellent piece of driving from that police officer. Well done that man.

There is so much traffic. That guy could have killed a lot of innocent people. This video made me so nervous. The other drivers they did a decent job of getting put of the way and not getting killed.

That officer is one heck of a driver

They need to start charging g people who flee in a vehicle with attempted murder for every single person they pass on the road. 1000 convictions of that and they'll never come out.

I was concerned about all the school buses that I saw and praying that neither the driver nor the policeman would crash into any of them.

Not that long ago the punishment for stealing a horse was death by hanging. Maybe we could deter criminals again with harsher punishment instead of rewards.

You know that dude in the silver Honda was like "whhhhhhhhewwwww" lol!

Glad that asshole got caught. I feel bad for the person who vehicle was stolen.

Nice to see drivers doing what they are supposed to do when an emergency vehicle comes up with lights on

It's time to start punishing these carjackers. Third-offense imprisonment for life. Why should any American who has worked their ass off just to have a vehicle lose so much to such a loser? I live in Florida and my roommate's car was stolen by an idiot who had already been prosecuted nine times for stealing cars. As far as I'm concerned the judge that made the decision to let this animal out of jail 9 times should be put in prison for the rest of his life. The criminal does the time the criminal gets let off and we the taxpayers suffer. Pick up your phone and call your Governor mayor and Senator everyday until they make this law. This is how you make America great again people.

Well done, Franklin County Sheriff Dept and CPD.

The 4 minutes at the end of the video showing absolutely nothing were really needed.

So many people were put in risk for a stolen car! This must stop!

Amazing driving skills by the officer

Another one bites the dust, well done officer!

How many people's lives were at risk because of that idiotic car thief? That stolen car could have burst into flames with him in it. I give the officer so much credit for being able to follow that lowlife and apprehend him. Respect the men in blue, we need them.

This perpetrator put so many people's lives in danger. His actions are really no different then randomly shooting a firearm. For the safety of the public, these officers put their lives on the line to end the pursuit. I'm of the belief that if a perpetrator has total disregard for public safety, as demonstrated here, law enforcement officers should have justification to utilize deadly force. All State Highway Patrols should have trained 'sniper' troopers with 50 caliber rifles. Setup at a roadblock and place a well aimed shot into the engine. Better yet, a well aimed shot into the driver.

holy sh-- that was NUTS. This guy was driving like a MANIAC!!! We all saw it! WOW. That was crazy. I commend this officer for being so well-trained and calm under pressure. He calculated second by second to manage to keep up with this guy's lunatic driving. This has to be one of the craziest thieves on the road I have ever seen, that driving was totally insane. But the officer was just awesome. THAT is training. All that heavy traffic and he STILL keep up, haha, thief must have been terrified to STILL see the officer behind him over and over again. Just outstanding police work. Seriously, this chase was epic although he hit someone else. I hope they are ok but I fear the worst. I will definitely be looking up this one in the news. This dude.....the thief....that driving was nuts. Just nuts. I am just fine without the sound, this one kept me shocked the entire time, he even came around that corner driving like a psychopath. GREAT chase, and outstanding work, this officer should be commended for this. Many other officers might not have been able to keep up! Great chase! Thanks for this 10! THAT is precision, expert level training, I would have FREAKED OUT driving like that through that heavy traffic. WOW. Thief probably terrified the other drivers.

Pretty sure he tried getting out of the car to go jogging.

I bet the guy in the first car was nervous asf.. he got saved that day lol

When these people hear sirens…GET THE HELL OUTTA THE DAMN WAY!

I must say, that although it didn’t end well, that person drove like a bat out of hell.

I wonder what happens in the brain when they think they'll live happily forever after if they end up stealing the car.

That's what I'm talking about smart people that look knows when to get over

good driving officer.my brother n law was a sheriff and was also a great driver.thanks for keeping the world safe!

Cop should have called it off long ago. Why put other lives in danger when you can catch him later. Car theft is not life threatening, a high speed chase is!

This thug went to extreme length to keep a vehicle he didn't own.

Juveniles? Over my lifetime, I thought I would have witnessed an abolishment of the juvenile court system. I know far too many boys who used it as a benchmark to commit crime before being tried as an adult.

A good 30 years behind bars would change a person's attitude about endangering all of those other people. Bring back workfarms.

At the end...I was hoping the car would burst into flames. Justice served.

That sherriff was a good driver. I'm not sure Ohio is the best state to play hide and seek with the police, since, Ohio's freeways are usually filled to the brim with those silver state trooper vehicles.

Can we just take a moment to appreciate this officers 12 minutes of impeccable driving!

Good on the deputy for keeping track of the suspect vehicle in that traffic!

8 minutes of pursuit driving, in an urban environ, without any backup visible... unsat

Accident 2:45 couldn’t tell who’s at fault

I was in this traffic when it happened we were backed up for miles 😫

Throughout the video I just kept thinking, “does this officer have any backup anywhere?”

Little did he know he was driving straight toward the Court House🤣🤣🤣

Wow...Sooooo Dangerous...

Cop did a great job in pursuit. Anyone who endangers lives by fleeing should first have the living hell beaten out of them before any jail time.

I don't give a damn if the thief has a broken leg and a punctured lung after that escapade , I hope the paramedics take about 45mins to get there as well.

Two law enforcement they're doing a great job keeping the public as safe as possible from guys like this

Did you notice that at about 34 seconds into the video the cop did not stop at the stop sign?

Thank goodness we have dedicated officers 👮‍♀️

Well trained officer to keep that guy in sight still keep as safe as possible and maintain those speeds. And all the way calling out his position to the dispatch. DEFUND THE POLICE.......NO ITS A HARD JOB ALREADY......

Why would you chase some one in such a conjested area and risk so many lives, including your own?

Some great driving on the Cops part!! Feel bad for the innocent people in the other car! Hope they are ok.

Wait until crashes call? That pursuit could have be ended way before the highway. 🤦🏻‍♂️

Are high speed chases really worth the risk of taking innocent lives out? I mean I saw them blast past a school bus full of children, what if they wrecked it and killing all aboard? For some low life, who'd eventually get caught anyways...

Those were some pretty risky maneuvers by the LEO. Not sure about his depts guidelines, but wonder if he got chewed out for pursuing at those speeds in those traffic conditions. Thank goodness he is a skilled driver.

My heart was pounding just watching this and I was not the person chasing or being chased ;)

He could have taken him out at the entrance ramp to the highway with no other cars and avoid all that chasing and the multiple car accident.

What in the hell is wrong with the idiots that slam on their breaks in the middle of a freeway!! These blooming idiots need charges for endangerment!! What the heck !! Get the hell out of the way!! You don't slam on your brakes and stop in the middle of a freeway!! They need to be banded from driving for life !!! Geez.....

What a good police man hope driver goes to jail for a long time

All these peoples lives put at risk and for what? A FUCKING CAR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! This shit has to stop, it is just a damn car, not worth injury or worse chasing after it!

My heart gos out to pd

Wow, what a jerk to put all those people at risk and a cause all that damage.

The car thief wasn't the only one endangering innocent lives in this chase. No car is worth this.

Although he was out of our view at times, he was as good as busted even before the chase began... you can't out run the Motorola, or hardly anyone ever does.

This was most nerve-racking! With audio, my heart would have popped! So glad the LEO was uninjured!!

Imagine driving in your neighborhood knowing you’re about to get pulled over (license/registration probably suspended) smh lol and god says it’s not your time ! 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾 he sends a stolen car/horrible driver your way. And police forgets about you and chase them lmao

God bless police officers.

They need to put drones in every City in America and Cameras to catch theses Criminals no where to hide or run, Good Job Sheriff

Jesus, I hope the other driver was ok

Great driving skills there officer.

Too many lives put in danger for a pursuit of a stolen car.

Hundreds of potential accidents, for a stolen car.. Ends dont justify the means. ..but i guess in the name of correctional facility profit, there is no risk too great.

Can any experts tell me why the officer took half an hour to turn around after the initial engagement?

This was unbelievable from start to finish.

Boy that was the stupidest bring attention to yourself move I've ever seen

It is such a shame these pieces of S* have to ruin so many others lives and properties. I hope he spends YEARS in prison!

What makes people think they can outrun the police? And, the outcome will be in their favor? Also have to say, grateful no innocent people weren't harmed. Criminals have no regard for anyone other than their selves. Long jail time!

AMAZING driving skills!!

Can't believe people moved over like they are suppose to! Great job keeping up with the car!

I like how the cop runs the stop sign to start the video. I guess he knew about the car and was trying to intercept it? Audio would help understand.

Why did it take 12 minutes for backup to get to this incident? They should have been helping their brother in blue! Kudos to the officer for staying on this thugs butt!!!

That officer has an amazing placement sense. Probably something they do on the heat of the moment, don't even think about it. But still, I would've let the criminal slip many times during this chase.

My only complaint is no audio. The officer did an amazing job and drove through traffic in a prudent manner with the motoring public in mind.

The amount of people who don’t pull over or get out the way and block the cop car with lights or hit their brakes when he’s trying to go around and it only brake checks him is unreal I’m always around this exact area and the drivers are so dumb this footage should be used to give those people tickets they coulda caused just as many wrecks as the dude running I’ve seen the wrecks in this same area.. unbelievable

I was taught when you hear a siren and see flashing lights you should pullover, or at least slow down, police chases are not worth innocent lives that might be lost

Was it worth risking lives for this chase? Insurance would pay for the stolen car but an innocent life lost is irreplaceable.

So nobody is going to comment on how the cop rolled the stop sign in the beginning?

why do cops have mute buttons on cameras, makes no sense

I was watching and he was going the same way I drive for work .I was like waaaaait what 🤣 sheriff don't play at all

He was slow to neutralize the danger of the driver.. The presence of the policeman is not only to catch the thief, but it is his duty to protect the people as well

Wow lots of traffic and safety violations just to get a stolen car ?

Columbus is stressful enough driving the speed limit. It’s gotta be the worst city ever to try and outrun a cop. 🤦🏻

That police officer is one hell of a driver. Well done, even though I think police chases should be illegal. How many people could have died in that 8 minutes of insanity? Those were kids in the car, which is also nuts.

Damn. Total disregard for every other person on the roads. Im sick to death of damn criminals doing whatever the hell they want without consequences. SMH DEPRAVED INDIFFERENCE.

That officer kept the other drivers on the road safe because he was at a safe distance. It is more common to see officers chase at a high rate of speed endangering others and themselves. Their job is not easy and so dangerous. I completely agree that this officer did one hell of a good job. May god bless him for protecting citizens and always putting himself on the line for our safety. it takes a certain kind of person that is brave to do the job he does.
