On Tuesday, May 4th, at approximately 10:30 a.m. officers were dispatched to the area of Main and Empire about an erratic driver. Callers stated that the white vehicle was driving very erratically, going in and out traffic, driving dangerously and almost colliding with both vehicles and pedestrians. ![]()

Officers located the vehicle and a pursuit ensued, ultimately being cancelled for the safety of the public as it left the Oakley city limits. Shortly after cancelling the pursuit, the vehicle returned to the City and was driving even more erratic than previously, an obvious danger to the public. Officers again attempted to stop the vehicle which again failed to yield, however this time the vehicle intentionally collided with an occupied patrol vehicle. Officers continued to attempt to stop the vehicle which eventually collided with a tree in the area of Main and Norcross. ![]()

Medical assistance was requested for the sole occupant and driver of the vehicle, who was uncooperative and acting erratically. Possibly suffering a medical emergency and or mental health issues. Luckily, no injuries were sustained to the public or the officers.
