CASE UPDATE: JAMES KENNETH SWAN II Age 49 of Lindenhurst IL, is still in custody in the Kenosha County WI jail as of 3/31/2026. He has pled not guilty and his next court date is 5/20/2026.
Trooper Byrd would have ended this at the stop sign
when the car hit the guide rail, the cop that pulled in behind should have just pushed "the suspect" back into the rail – chase ended
Those troopers are the most commitment-phobic I've ever seen.
What amateurs these officers are, they had multiple occasions to end the pursuit but they didnt because they were incompetent…
Guy displaying his never give up attitude.
"I can't breathe"
If you can talk you can breathe. That's how it works
From start to finish, this was HORRIBLE… scared to attempt a PIT and asked to terminate chase ?! smh….
I wanna know who was driving the front squad car because they are a terrible driver!!! So many opportunities to slow him down miles back but they were playing.
Pajamas AND house shoes 😂😂😂
I got this in my feed, and from this is my first video, it's worth subscribing. The off duty cop did a great job in helping, and I sandals too. Way to go ! I'm going down the rabbit hole now.
I'm happy you guys didn't terminate the pursuit. You got the guy. Great work !
Pajama Cop is a LEGEND.
I love and support our police officers but departments need to empower officers to end a pursuit. We don’t give a shit about this guys life. He put the public at risk. End the pursuit with a pit and if he expires oh well
Need fur buddy
I don’t know who’s making the calls on the police actions& protocols , but this is ridiculous…they should’ve pitted him 10x over!
I heard one ask should they stop the chase, uh no. That’ll just encourage more of this type of behavior.
Trying to box him in and acting afraid to damage your vehicle while doing it, looks foolish and weak, chase the criminal, be like AR, stop them before they can hurt more ppl, drive with more aggression, playing nice guy can happen once you get them in handcuffs, until then…use necessary force required for the behavior used by suspect.
So much unnecessary movement-just learn to drive, work together to actually box them in or just pit them if your going to use this method. Otherwise, yawl just need to let them go, ignore or look the other way from their unlawful actions/behavior, just allow them to keep breaking your state law. Which will only increase this behavior and danger to innocent drivers.
WI needs to fire the ppl making these calls and not properly training their LE, and the DA needs to let them know the DAs office has their backs when put in these high risk situations.
Just a little joyride today. Hell, even wear your pajamas!
Ridiculous. Wisconsin police chases go for days and weeks, while Arkansas State Police would have ended this in moments.
We should all be allowed to stop and punch these kinda DPSHTs in the face public roadside for making us late
**** P A T H E T I C ***** D I S G R A C E F U L ******** ASP laughing like crazy **
Criminals wouldn't run if they feared being stopped by fire.
I've seen the boxing in so many times here, three or four cars swiftly moving into place and coming to a steady stop. I don't think it's practiced over there!
Great job running officers! Even you pajama cop!!!
Thank you to all legitimate law enforcement!
I thought I was going to see a cop off duty catching him in jammies. Good video but bummed no cop in jammies.
Why do they think that they can get away?
What is he running from
What is it for 15 minutes of infamy or something I don’t understand why they keep going I mean yeah I took a vehicle but I ain’t have no cops chasing me and I ain’t even want it so I parked it and pushed a doorbell and waited
I would not last one day being a cop I’d be fired by the end of the first shift because I already know
Plates read I’m an ahole I think but it’s a dirty one 😂🤣
This kind of pursuit over traffic infractions?! Wth!
Giant teddy bear needed. His feelings are hurt.😂
Just skip to 10.40. So frustrating! 😂
A new super hero PAJAMA MAN!!!
11:00 is it just me or does that look like a cartoon?
Never quite know when the local PD is gonna pop up on the tube lol… knowing those roads, the less aggressive approach makes sense.
Why can’t they shoot out the tires! Just wondering
Why let it go on for so long? Do a pit
