Driver Says He Snapchatted While Being Chased by Cops

A Texas police chase ended in gunshots after an hour long pursuit with a man who admitted to possessing marijuana and stated to the media that he is “done with people trying to take [his] freedom.”

The driver identified as Jonathan Davis led police on a high-speed chase reaching chase speeds of 100 mph and went through five state counties, according to WFAA-TV. The chase came to an end when police shot out the wheels of the vehicle causing Davis to crash his car into a median.

Davis said he doesn’t know why cops pulled him over, but believes it was because he was “on [his] iPhone, [his] little iPad, changing music.”

“Dude, I was trying to get to San Antonio. I don’t know what the [bleeped out] roads I was on until they shot my car. I didn’t know they was going to shoot at me. I was like, “Damn, they shooting at me—I ain’t even got no gun.”

Davis told reporters that he ran from police because he is tired of getting arrested for marijuana and that he is unable to get a job because of his arrest record for marijuana. Davis also admitted to being an adrenaline junkie and that he considered the chase a thrill. Davis stated he posted to both his Snapchat and Instagram accounts while driving. Following a check of his account, Fox 4 did not find any Instagram posts related to the chase.

According to Fox 4, Davis now faces charges for evading arrest, possession of a controlled substance, marijuana possession and driving while intoxicated. Since Davis told us all the extent of his police hatred in his minute of media fame, we can make an educated guess on how he feels about that.
