Police capture suspect who forced his way into Warren daycare center during foot pursuit

Dramatic body camera footage has been released by the Warren Police Department showing their capture of a suspect who had forced his way into a daycare center last week. According to a post on Facebook, on Nov. 2, an officer attempted a traffic stop on a male suspect who was wanted for felonious assault. The suspect refused to pull over and a pursuit ensued onto North Park Avenue. The vehicle pursuit came to a stop when the suspect crashed into a vehicle in the vicinity of North Park Ave. and Washington Street NE. He got out of the care and fled the scene on foot, moving behind the Precious Times Child Care and Preschool. Officers were close behind the suspect in the foot chase. The body camera video shows one of the officers pulling out a taser and yelling at the suspect to "get your hands up." The suspect then forced his way through the rear door of the daycare center as an employee tried to close it. As police followed him into center, the suspect raised his hand towards officers, threatening to shoot them. One of the officers tried to tase the suspect, but was not successful. Police finally captured the suspect when he went into a classroom, tumbling into a playpen near several young children. Amid screams from both adults and children, an officer is heard instructing staff members to "get the kids, please get the kids." Around 30 seconds later, the officer reported that all the children had been evacuated.
