Sheriff’s officials in Nevada say two people were arrested after a high-speed chase in a stolen car from rural Pahrump to suburban Henderson, near Las Vegas.
Nye County Sheriff’s Capt. David Boruchowitz said today a reality TV film crew accompanied deputies during the 30-minute chase that began about 7 p.m. Monday and went for 70 miles.
Video released by the department shows a deputy punching the driver, whom Boruchowitz said was unarmed but didn’t comply with directions exiting the four-door car after the chase.
Boruchowitz said speeds reached 120 mph, but no one was injured.
The driver, identified as 42-year-old Eliberto Flores, and a 50-year-old passenger, Michelle Elvenia, were arrested on multiple counts, including drug possession. Boruchowitz said methamphetamine was found in the car.
