The deputy continued behind the vehicle at speeds at over 100 mph running through intersections and going into the city limits of Conroe. When the vehicle got to FM 3083 it turned north and as he accelerated ran into the ditch. The ditch didn't stop him as he lost a drivers side tire he recovered and continued north on FM 3083 traveling through the intersection at over 80 mph.
