Video of Euclid fatal chase released to I-Team
In Euclid, Ohio, police were involved in a pursuit of a stolen vehicle on October 2nd, where the suspect refused to stop and led officers on a high-speed chase reaching 90 mph. Tragically, the stolen car crashed into another vehicle, resulting in the death of an innocent man named Maurice Ford. The suspect, Jeremiah Bacon, was apprehended with the help of a K-9 officer shortly after the crash. Bacon, who had an ankle monitor on at the time, is facing a charge of aggravated vehicular homicide and is being held on a $500,000 bond. The incident has sparked discussions about implementing a unified police chase policy in the county. Local leaders, including Euclid Police Chief Scott Meyer, are open to these conversations but point out the challenges in preventing pursuits that end in tragedy. The family of the victim plans to hold a rally advocating for an end to police chases, and the chief mentioned that the incident will be thoroughly reviewed.
