MELBOURNE, Fla. --
Melbourne Police found themselves in the midst of a dangerous chase, Sunday. Melbourne police officer Mark Jennewien was performing a routine license plate check when he learned the call he was following was a stolen rental car.
RAW VIDEO: Chase Caught On Camera
Officers said that dash cam video shows 19-year-old Antonio Knight leading them on a 12 minute pursuit through residential streets.
Officers said Knight made four attempts to hit them with his car and swerved recklessly toward police units and even an officer on the street.
Knight finally lost control, jumped a curb and hit a utility pole. The stolen car then hit a van and rolled several times ejecting Knight. He got up and fled on foot, but was apprehended a few blocks away.
