Douglas County, CO - A fairly new device that helps police gain the upper hand during a pursuit was recently used by the Colorado State Patrol to remove a “dangerous driver” from the road.

The Douglas County Sheriff’s Office released on Tuesday a video showing a CSP trooper deploy what is called a Grappler to stop a vehicle during a pursuit on Interstate 25 near Larkspur Friday morning.

The incident started after the Douglas County Sheriff's Office responded to I-25 on reports of a person driving erratically and hitting the center median barrier going 75 mph, the sheriff's office said.

A deputy pursued the vehicle southbound until a Colorado State Patrol unit, using the Grappler technology, safely stopped the suspect near Larkspur.

The driver, who has not been identified, was taken into custody without injury, the sheriff’s office said.
