A man involved in a high-speed pursuit jumped out of his pick up truck and hijacked a sports utility vehicle after forcing the woman who was driving it out, in Orange County, California on Monday, (February 26).

The suspect then weaved in and out of heavy traffic while he was being chased by police before he slammed into a sidewalk and took off on foot.

Aerial footage showed a police dog tackling the man after getting hold of his arm before police officers caught up as well and nailed the suspect down, forcing the dog to release the suspect's bloody arm.

Emergency response teams showed up minutes later to attend to the suspect before he was taken into custody.
