Indiana State Trooper Mistaken for Suspicious Vehicle During Police Chase
An Indiana state trooper from the bomb squad found himself in handcuffs during a police chase last September. Driving an unmarked truck with lights and sirens to an emergency call, local officers mistook it for a suspicious vehicle. The mix-up began near a gas station in Austin, where an officer helping a stranded motorist saw the truck speed by. Dispatchers checked with state police and were told all units were at a meeting, leading to a pursuit involving multiple agencies. Officers ran the license plate, which traced back to a state fleet vehicle, but no one pieced it together right away. The trooper was pulled over at gunpoint, and everyone stood down once state dispatch confirmed it was their bomb squad member heading to a call. No formal reports were filed, and everyone agreed to put the embarrassing incident behind them.
