THURSTON COUNTY, Wash. — The Thurston County Sheriff’s Office says one of its sergeants pretended to be a K-9 while chasing a reckless motorcyclist.
The chase happened on Wednesday at around 10:30 p.m.
The sergeant tried to stop the rider at first.
The rider rode up a long driveway to a wooded area to get away from the police.
At one point, the suspect was pursued on foot by the sergeant before falling.
As deputies approached the motorcyclist, the sergeant made an impression of a police K-9.
Video of the incident was shared by Derek Sanders, who called the impression “uncanny.”
The suspect was taken into custody following the chase.
