On Sunday, June 5, 2022, at approximately 1943 hrs. I observed a motorcycle driving recklessly in and out of traffic northbound on I-75/85 near Langford Parkway. I initiated my lights and sirens for the purpose of a traffic stop. The driver of the motorcycle disregarded the emergency blue lights and sirens. The driver initiated a high-speed pursuit. The driver of the motorcycle was driving extremely recklessly exiting onto I-20 westbound. The pursuit continued west
until the driver exited onto Lee Street, traveling north. The driver
made another right onto Oak Street traveling the wrong way.
Georgia State Patrol Trooper TFC Freeman badge # 487 joined the
pursuit as the driver enter the West End Mall parking lot. The driver
continued fleeing through the parking lot of the mall turning left onto
Ralph David Abernathy Boulevard. He then turned onto Lee Street
and exited back onto I-20 Eastbound. He continued driving
recklessly, weaving in and out of traffic, and at high rates of speed. I
lost contact with the pursuit at Flat Shoals Road. TFC Freeman
continued the pursuit eastbound on I-20 until he ran out of gas near
Candler Road. Georgia State Patrol Corporal Smith badge # 793
was able to regain contact with the motorcycle and continued the
pursuit eastbound on I-20 at Candler Road. The driver was traveling
at speeds well over 100 mph while in the HOV lane. The driver
exited onto I-285 South, continuing to flee. Cpl. Smith closely
pursued the motorcycle as the driver exited onto Jonesboro Road,
turning right. The driver began to slow down, and Cpl. Smith was
able to bring the pursuit to a safe stop. Cpl. Smith placed the driver
under arrest as I arrived on the scene. Cpl. Smith turned the driver
over to myself and requested a tow truck for the motorcycle. South
Metro towing responded and took possession of the motorcycle at
approximately 2015 hours. I transported the driver to the Fulton
County Jail for booking. The driver was identified by his suspended
class CP driver’s license as Alexander Aldridge from Jonesboro, GA.
Mr. Aldridge was also wanted for failure to appear out of Clayton County. Mr. Aldridge was charged with fleeing and attempting to
elude, reckless driving, suspended license, and expired tag. Scene
cleared on Monday, June 6, 2022, approximately 0020 hours
