Fort Worth police chase ends on foot after suspect jumps over fence

WFAA chopper footage showed the alleged suspect speeding through traffic.

FORT WORTH, Texas — A suspect appears to be under arrest following a pursuit involving the Fort Worth Police Department Friday evening.

The Fort Worth Police Department said officers found a vehicle reported stolen at about 4:30 p.m. and attempted to stop it, but the driver, 29-year-old Terron Hadnot, didn't comply. 

That's when the chase started, police said.

The chase, which WFAA chopper picked up while in Haltom City, began in East Fort Worth and ended in the 1100 block of Cactus Spine Drive in the Sendera Ranch Neighborhood in Haslet.

Chopper footage showed the alleged suspect traveling at a high rate of speed down Interstate 35-W, coming close to hitting slowed traffic multiple times. 

After a few minutes, the suspect exited the highway, heading toward the Sendera Ranch Neighborhood and onto Avondale Haslet Road. Chopper footage then showed the vehicle suddenly stop, at which point the suspect exited the black sedan and took off on foot into a field. 

An hour after the chase started at this point, the suspect could then be seen on chopper footage leaping over a fence and continuing to run for a short while -- until a Fort Worth police cruiser plowed through the fence and drove in front of them, forcing the suspect to give up. 

Chopper footage showed several officers approach the suspect and place them into handcuffs. No other civilians or officers were hurt during the incident, police said.
