“Do me a favor and stop messing with stuff in your vehicle,” an officer is heard saying on body camera footage.
He didn’t follow orders, so officers told him to get out of the car.
“Get out of the vehicle! Get out of the vehicle!” an officer said.
While struggling with two officers, Still put the vehicle in drive and took off with one partially inside.
He ended up crashing the car into a parked vehicle, backed into a tree, then jumped out and took off running.
