We’re learning more information about the moments that led to a wild foot chase on Interstate 20.
Drivers captured video of the suspect running from Georgia State Patrol Troopers across several lanes of traffic Sunday afternoon.
“I looked to the right and I saw some people dangling off the highway,” said Cameron Spann.
Spann shoots music videos but he said what he saw on I-20 over the weekend, rivaled some of the wildest scenes he’s filmed. While driving, he pulled out his phone and started recording.
“My initial thought was maybe they might need some help. But then I saw the police officer, so then I thought this was a crime scene,” said Spann.
The chase started minutes before Spann pulled up.
Investigators said they attempted to pull over 25-year-old Dyshawn West in the eastbound lanes of I-20. West tried to drive away, crashed his car and then fled the scene, jumping over a barrier into westbound lanes.
Eventually, troopers caught up to West and that’s when they reportedly used a Taser on him. Spann’s video captured the next moments when investigators said West ran again.
“The guy he fell like 50 feet from the side of the highway and then he started running across the highway with one handcuff on,” said Spann.
Eventually, a bystander tackled West and troopers got him in handcuffs.
West was later checked out at a hospital then taken to the Fulton County Jail.
