The Rex Plumbing truck sped off with the deputy behind it. As they ran through several streets Evans got out of his vehicle as the suspect was in one of the cul-de-sacs, the driver identified as Christopher Dugger, 22, drove at  Evans a struck him. Evans suffered minor injuries. Another deputy assisting fired several shots at the vehicle, however, the vehicle continued to flee. The chase continued south on FM 1485 to US 59 where the driver drove south on the feeder at speeds of 100 mph. With DPS, MCSO and Precinct 4 Constables in the pursuit, the truck turned west on FM 1314.

The vehicle then traveled north on US 59 where DPS Troopers, not having any traffic around them attempted to shoot the tires out.
