About This is an oldie and a goodie. The police officer and I ran through two housing project trying to catch this guy. When the officer was going for his pepper spray, I thought he was going for his gun! The suspect had to be sprayed 3 times before he went down. Have you ever tried to take pictures when you are out of breath from running and your eyes and lungs are full of pepper spray? I was down wind but somehow managed this shot.

Hi Debbie,

You are quite observant. He did have on some sort of medical covering over the bandages on his feet.

I was a photojournalist working in Las Vegas when I took this picture. I have since moved on to the Phoenix area where I work as a newspaper page designer. On the day I took this picture, I was riding with the police while working on a story regarding the rising crime rate in that neighborhood.

The police responded to a call where a woman was complaining that the windows on her car had been smashed by her boyfriend. While we were at her apartment, she started yelling "There he is! There he is!!!" and the chase was on. He outran the police through two housing projects and almost got away except for the fact that I was lugging a lot of equipment and had just come back to work after knee surgery (I was bringing up the rear) -- I was able to see where he went and pointed him out. He was cornered in the back yard of a house just outside of the projects.

The suspect, who you see in the picture, was under the influence of some powerful street drugs. You see he had been drug behind a car less than a week before this picture was taken. He did have bandages on his feet, yet he was nearly able to outrun the cops. -- Tony

That's for sure a rare moment. The guy looks like he has on a blue fuzzy slipper or a hospital shoe. He also looks like he has a cast on his foot. Are you sure he wasn't trying to run away from a hospital?:)
