DRAPER, Utah — New body cam video released by the Draper Police Department shows the moment a wanted fugitive stole one of their patrol cars.
“He’s getting in my car,” yelled an officer. “Get out of my car! Get out of the car! He’s leaving in my patrol car.
The incident happened back in 2019, but the video was released Wednesday.
It all started when an officer tried to pull over 23-year-old Kent Cody Barlow, but he took off.
Eventually, he got off his motorcycle and ran.
The pursuing officer lost track of him, and that’s when Barlow jumped into the officer’s police car and took off again, leading other officers on a high-speed chase.
The chase ended after Barlow crashed into a set of mailboxes near 7600 South and 7th East.
He was arrested and charged with 16 different crimes.
