This statement was digitally recorded and downloaded Mto the media vault. I asked that Offlcer Farrington to take me through this Incldent tnnight. Officer Farrington asked that In order to do that,we naed to badc up a couple of weeks. Reginald Craig Sutherlln has two active pickups out, one if for Felony�omestic, the other for strangulation i betieve it was, and he also has a DAC IPS warrant. He Is known to us cops, I beneve he was arrested for mu�der in the 60's, he is violent indivldual, every ' time he sees cops he efther runs or fights with us. Common knowledge through word of mouth I know he had the pldcups out for hlm. '1'wo weeks ago, I went to 1019 Gerantum, because we got a call that thls guy was there. He fled,we set up a perlmeter r(ght away and he escaped the perlmeter�Ight away. The next day 1 � went and talked to Theresa Kelley, this is when I started my next shlft,just asksd her a little further In depth ' what the deal was exacdy wlth this guy, She told me that she was afrald he was going to kill her, he has ; assaulted her many tlmes ln the past, ehe made the reports, lt was flled and she was scared he was going to kill her and he gets away from us every time•and he had fled out the other side of the perimeter we set up. She gave me some Information thet ha stays down on the west slde, by the Stryker Market and she gave me hls plate number on a Cadlllac, 874-M, or reverse them maybe. So I went down by the Stryker Market a�d started to make circles and found the car, bahind the laundry mat parked In a dead end alley. I set up a block and a half wlth K9, that day, he came out, I dldn't see his face, but hls vehlcle came out and went east on Eltzabeth to Stryker and by thet tlme I am accelereting towards hlm. By the time I got to that same Intersedion he was already tuming on Morton� back west bound on Morton, and by the t(me I got to that(Me�ection he was gone. Pulled onto Dodd Road, went south bound and I traveled up end there was a family crossing the road, and (asked them If they had seen a Cadlllac, and descrlbed the silver Cadlllac and they sald "yeh he went by going about 90 down Dodd road, south bound into West St, Paul." So that was that day. Throughout that time, about two weeks ago maybe a week and half ago, throughout that tlme Theresa has been calling me, she sald that he stole her purse� some other belongings, Including her dad's cell phone,whlch she then started ' ;ontacting hlm about gett�ng her stuff back. She conHnuously updated me, and we were trying to flgure out how to arrest thls guy, because he has been sltppery, every tlme someone sees hlm he was gone, And(n ' sP,cescsc,eaa�s 01/1712014 15:10 Sara Rojas ffA� P.0101013 Saint Paul Police Department � P�� 2 °'g S�IJPPL�MENTAL OFFENSE / INCIDENT R�PORT Complelnt NumDe� Relerence CN DAfe and Tlme of RapoR 3158422 07I30/201314:4fi:00 Pdmery olfense: AGG ASSAULT-W/OTHER DANGEROUS WEAPONS additlon to those to events that I was on, there has been several others while he has had thase two pick ups out where we are looking for hlm. He eitFter flees or runs on foot from somebody, he's elus(ve, so he wil)do anything to get away, baslcally. So, yesterday, I called her and asked if she had anything new for me. Sho told him that she was outside I am walking to Menards, so i plck her up in my squad, turn on my in car camera system and drlving her to Menards at 61 and 36, she proceeds to tell me that he(s In contact with her and he is doing the"I lova you baby, wants to get back with her, and all that stuff. She would like to get h(m arrested, because again, she is scared he (s going to klll her. She also proceeds to tell me that he Is trying to sell guns, word of mouth thlyd hand that he Is trying to sell guns he had In a burglary. 'That was either Thu�sday or Frlday last Thursday ot Friday he was trying to sell those guns. Guns, vlolent Individual,flees, runs, flghts� and nothing happened last night with it. Tonight she called me and says 1 am suppose to be here in flve minutes and he is suppose ta come up to my bsck porch. So I have Thor pick me up, I ditched my car, because he can smell cops a m(le a way, so I dttched my car and go into the hause and I sft right Inside the screen down while she wafts far him on the back porch. The plan that we set up was. Chris Rhodes and Mack and Thor and I thlnk a K9 was In the area, but I don't know for sure. When he come in there she was going to get him to come up Into the porch, its more enclosed. So when I see hlm come Into the yard, I would radio in for the cars to come into that back alley, because the last tlme I dealt with him he fled north. So we were going to take him into custody right on that back porch, hands on. Now that changed back and forth, he was coming in vehicle, he was comtng on foot, coming In vehicle, he was coming on foot. But her plan and my plan was to get him to .ome up onto that badc porch and take him into custody. As thlhg progressed he tells her to start walking down Geranium east bound towards Earl from that 1019 Geranium address, A less than(deal situation, but� he Is not coming to the address, she feels that he is not comfng to the address, so I went into the alley end I made sure she was continuously� 1 am loaking through the yarcls watching her walk all the way down on the north side of Geranium walk(ng down whlle I am in the north alley. We get to Eari� he tells her to keep walking, I ' cross Earl, 1 go behind the church, she continues walking, end I see a meroon Chevy Lumina whlch is the car he (s suppose to be driving because he dumped that Cadlllac. She had told me that he was drlving that maroon Chevy l.umina yesterday, all of that was on that squad camere things too. So I see tt go by. I hear her yeUfng Into her phone Is that you, is that you,why are you making m�'av�tli� and�t was loud, k had some muffler ' issues or something. Not for sure.if it was that, It was suppase to be a red Lumina, but It was close enough.so she sald, Is that you, ls that you, �nd I hear the car start coming back, so 1 call a 10-3 out because obviously I ' know its htm now. Or if Its not we have to roll the dlce now. I called the squads ln, and as that is happening. she goes up to the side of the cer. 1 am scared she ts going to get Into the cat and I can't let that happen. I walk out tnto the middle of the road,from behlnd some shrubbery, bushes Just on the slde of the, by the church � In a yard. As I am doing that I have my hand out, (during the desoriptton O�lcer Farrfngton holds out hts left ' ha�d, outstretchad his arm with his palm flat towards me) and I have my gun in my other hand (rlght)you know ' he ls vlolent and he got the gun stuff going on now. As I do that, I hear the car go into gear, I hear the tlres � lurch and Just floors It right at me, I stert engaging right then, I engage all the way he Is gofng by me and as he passes me right after trying to hR me. At that point Thor picked up the chase. t asked Officer Farrington If there were any verbal commands?

He asked me to foilow him and he was going park his squad and get Into my squad�nd 1 was going to drop him off, he was going to get Into the house, I would stay In the area and get anothe�squad and a K9 to assist In apprehending Mr. Sutherlin. Time came and went, at on point Mark called me back and sald, Mr. Suthertin sald the area was hot and was going to go someplace else. A while later Office�Farrington called me and said that the female at the house was going to walk east bound on Garanfum towards Earl and he was go(ng to perallel her in the all�y that's to the north. I then advised the other squads what was going on� and the que for us to move in was Officer Farrington in arresting Mr. Sutherlln he was going to call a 10-3. Some time around 1014 PM Officer�arrington had called a 10-3 on the air. I started drlv(ng east bound on Rose, I had been patked on Rose,Just wast of Cypress. I drove east bound on Rose, Offlcer Farrington sa(d that Is was going to be the maroon Chev Lumina iat was on Geranium in the intersectlon.

We contlnued south on Ear(, he made a rlght hand turn to go west on Bush and at that point he had slowed down to 20 mph, so I was thinking he wes looking for a place to bail on foot. We have lost him at least I belleve three times this mor�th from him fleefng polfce. Ha then turned left to go south on Cypress then made an immedlate rlght to go west in the aliey,the north alley of Reaney. As he was traveling west he looked like he was going to pull into a paricing spot,at 977 Reaney. and his car started to fishtafl, so the drive�'s side was facing my squad.
