FOX 2 (WJBK) - Michigan State Police shared helicopter videos from pursuits over the weekend after traffic stop attempts were ignored.
Both videos from Trooper 3 showed fleeing suspects - one from Detroit's west side and the second ending in Warren, were posted to the MSP Second District X account, formerly known as Twitter.
"MSP aviation remained busy across the district over the weekend. Here are two videos showcasing some of the calls they handled," the X account posted. "It is always easier to stop for a traffic stop regardless of what you have going on in your life. There is too much technology available to think you won't get caught."
In the first incident was a traffic stop pursuit that stretched across a portion of the northwest side of the city, ending when the suspect pulled the car over and was arrested on foot - while trying to hide - near Greenview and Lyndon streets.

The second traffic stop attempt (in the video above) began in Eastpointe and ended in Warren. In this case the suspect vehicle drove across a median and came to a stop in an empty lot where three suspects bailed out.
All three were arrested with the help of air support.
