Woman arrested after Sardine Canyon chase (mug shot - barf alert)

According to Logan Assistant Police Chief Jeff Simmons, the incident started as a retail theft. While police were en route, a woman reportedly ran from the store with an armload of merchandise and loss prevention officers hot on her heels.

The woman threw the merchandise into what appeared to be a gray Volkswagen Jetta that was waiting for her in the parking lot.

“She then ran around the front of the car, and so did the Al’s employee,” Simmons said. “Well, the driver of the car then took off, striking one of the Al’s employees, carrying him on the hood for a short distance — 30 or 40 or 50 feet — until he fell off.”

At that point, the driver of the car — initially described as a male with tattoos on his neck — continued forward and picked up the woman, who had continued running southbound through the parking lot, and then drove off.

Police say they later identified the driver as Brittany Lee Franklin, 35, (snip)

A Cache County-based Utah Highway Patrol trooper who joined in the pursuit reported the vehicle was traveling at speeds of 80-105 miles per hour through light traffic.

Brigham City officers were ready and waiting (snip) where a Box Elder UHP trooper was staged and ready to deploy spikes just south of the brake check area above Brigham City.

“The vehicle hit the spike at nearly 80 mph, hitting both right side tires. (snip) “A Cache County deputy used his vehicle to block the driver from leaving the car.”(snip)

The driver — a woman who officers had initially mistaken for a male from a distance — was almost immediately taken into custody at gunpoint, according to police.

God loves her as much as he loves me or you.

Hate the sin, love the sinner. Easier said than done. I fail all the time.
