Fleeing Wisconsin driver gets airborne and jumps car over another car during high-speed chase
Footage from a high-speed chase in Wisconsin earlier this month shows the fleeing driver going airborne and jumping his car over another. We’re talking full ‘Dukes of Hazzard’ style.
It’s one of the most insane dashcam videos you’ll ever see. The Fond du Lac County Sheriff’s Office released the now-viral footage of the arrest, which took place on Saturday morning, May 9.

FOX 6 reports that the Wisconsin State Patrol stopped a car, then called for backup because of an active felony warrant. As a Fond du Lac County sheriff’s deputy and another trooper arrived, the driver took off.

A high-speed pursuit began and eventually came to an end when the driver lost control, went into a ditch, then up the embankment. This is where the car flies over another car.
The fleeing driver’s car not only flew over the other car, it went all the way over the road and ended up in a field on the other side.
Remarkably, Dewayne Stokes, 44, identified by police as the driver, wasn’t ready to give up. He got out of the vehicle and had to be Tased before being taken into custody.
The pursuit had come to an end after four and a half miles, a tiny bit of which was covered through the air. Stokes was then taken to the hospital with minor injuries.

He was charged with seven counts, including first-degree reckless endangering safety and two counts of eluding an officer. His cash bond was set at $25,000, and he’s due back in court on June 24, according to court documents.
Stokes was out on bond at the time of his car flight for operating a vehicle without the owner’s consent, FOX 6 added. He had a warrant issued for his arrest after he failed to appear in court. He didn’t know it at the time, how could he have, but that decision was going to put him on a path to fly a car over another car.
Everything happens for a reason.
BURNETT CO., Wisc. (FOX 9) – A crash involving a utility terrain vehicle (UTV) and truck in Burnett County, Wisconsin, killed three people after authorities believe the UTV failed to stop at an intersection.

Badgers’ Evan Flood recently had a chance to break down prized Wisconsin Badgers commit Yahzeen Zion’s visit to LSU.
In the NIL era, it’s incredibly hard for Luke Fickell’s squad to compete with an SEC program, let alone try and take down LSU.
Zion committed to the Badgers back on June 6. According to 247Sports, he’s had visits with Oklahoma, LSU, and Mississippi State since pledging his commitment to play in Madison.
Flood wrote (subscription required), “The trip was supposed to be cancelled, but Zion unexpectedly traveled to Baton Rouge.”
That said, Flood’s sources firmly believe Zion “has not been swayed.”
Knowing Zion chose the Badgers over prestigious programs like Georgia, Texas A&M, Oklahoma, Auburn, among many others, it would be a tough pill to swallow if all of a sudden, now he decides he’d rather play elsewhere.

“His cellmate started to experience a medical emergency and eventually passed away from what was eventually learned to be a narcotics overdose,” the marshal explained.
A criminal complaint explains, officers searched Luckett’s body and found drugs hidden in his underwear.
“That’s when they found the five bags of narcotics, and those narcotics tested positive for cocaine and fentanyl,” the marshal said.
Luckett eventually bonded out, and was showing up to court. That changed when he was charged with first-degree reckless homicide. A warrant was issued for Luckett’s arrest. U.S. Marshals say he is still in the Milwaukee area.
“He’s already killed one person with these drugs and if he’s still out there dealing now, he’s endangering the public,” the marshal said.
