Officers attempted a traffic stop after spotting an allegedly stolen vehicle. A pursuit began and the vehicle stopped and three people -- two men and a woman -- bailed out of the vehicle and ran away. One of the men was caught immediately. Meanwhile, a Texas Department of Public Safety helicopter spotted the man jumping into a white Dodge Charger. Police surrounded the Charger with their vehicles to block it. As the officers exited their vehicle to make the arrest, the man began ramming the police vehicles, pinning a trooper. The other officers shot and killed the man.
