HOUSTON – An unusual situation took place in north Houston in the early hours of Tuesday morning.
Officers with the Houston Police Department reportedly attempted to perform a traffic stop in the 3400 block of Cavalcade Street at around 1:30 a.m.
According to officials, the traffic stop then became a felony evading situation, and officers with the northeast patrol department were then forced to box the suspect’s car in.
HPD officers attempted to negotiate with the suspect who was behind the wheel, however a large crowd, believed to be his family and friends, quickly began to gather around the patrol cars.
The crowd reportedly became unruly while the suspect could be heard on video yelling expletives and slurs toward the police.
He was also seen putting his hands up and throwing a wad of cash into the air near the officers.
After about 30 minutes of the encounter, HPD officers said they determined the best course of action was to leave the scene.
Multiple charges are expected to be filed against the suspect.
