His vehicle crashed in a ditch in Prairie County after a state trooper executed a tactical maneuver. Jones' mother, who didn't want to be named, says her daughter didn't know Hambrick well but was friends with Laterrika Woods. They were all returning from a vacation, and her daughter said they pleaded for Hambrick to pull over. "He wasn't listening," said the victim's mother. "I think my daughter said he pulled over a moment. And then the police got to the car he took off again. So you know, you know it's out of your control when you're you're not the driver, so you're not in control of it." During the investigation, troopers found two firearms, an unknown amount of money, a bottle of promethazine, marijuana, and narcotics in the vehicle.

WREG has reported on Arkansas State Police PIT maneuvers and ASP aggressively going after vehicles that refuse to stop. We've also shown how sometimes those PIT maneuvers turn deadly and have led to lawsuits. ASP told us they do pull back in a lot cases and cease the pursuit. "The idea that, you know, we're just being cowboys, and we're going to chase them until, you know, this thing concludes, that's not true," said Col. Mike Hager with ASP in a 2024 interview.   But Jones' mother thinks police should focus more on safety, especially when innocent people are involved. "The police shouldn't be able to knock people over in the ditch," she said. "They shouldn't be able to do that, because it was three other peoples in the car with that guy that was trying to stop. That's just not fair. I don't see any fairness to that, and I really think that's a law that should be changed in Arkansas, that they can do that to people." ...read more read less
