Berkley police chase ends in Oak Park
A Southfield man led Berkley police on a chase that reached speeds of 70 mph before eventually surrendering in Oak Park.
BERKLEY, Mich. (FOX 2) - After leading Berkley police on a chase that extended into Oak Park, a man was ordered to stay out of Berkley and Royal Oak.
The chase started just after midnight Wednesday when officers tried to stop 19-year-old Cameron Scott on westbound 12 Mile near Kenmore. Instead of stopping, Scott turned onto northbound Kenmore. With officers tailing him, he turned on Edwards and headed to southbound Coolidge.

Police dashcam video showed Scott continuing south on Coolidge at about 55 mph. Eventually, he reached about 70 mph in an area where the speed limit ranges from 30 to 35 mph. At one point, he turned off his lights.
Scott crossed into Oak Park, where he slowed to allegedly throw a loaded handgun from his car, police said. As officers prepared to box him in and rammed his car as he neared I-696, Scott stopped and surrendered.
