Drugs seen thrown out window during police chase in Pearland
PEARLAND, Texas - Authorities say a police chase in Pearland overnight Saturday ended with at least three people getting arrested.
It first happened after Clear Lake Tactical Units were checking the area for suspicious activity and saw a car leaving a hotel and tried to pull it over for committing "a traffic violation."
Officers tried pulling over the vehicle, but a brief chase ensued on the beltway. During the pursuit, investigators say the suspects were seen throwing several items out of the window, including narcotics.
Eventually, the suspects were heading southbound on South Main St. in Pearland. That's where officers did a PIT maneuver, causing the vehicle to spin out into a ditch before hitting a light pole.
