Pursuit starts in Diboll, Ends in Liberty County, ROMAYOR, September 2, 2023 - At approximately 7 pm on September 2, 2023, police in Diboll attempted to stop a gray 2023 Dodge Durango that was south-bound on US-59 in Diboll. The driver decided to evade. The pursuit entered Polk County via the Neches River Bridge and continued through Corrigan. The speeds of the chase exceeded 90 miles per hour. The Diboll Officers called off the chase shortly after it turned onto FM-942. In less than 10 minutes a Polk County Deputy spotted the vehicle on 942 and attempted to stop it, but once again the driver decided to evade.
