Thurston County, WA - Sanders said he responded to a “disturbance” at an apartment complex in the Lacey area.

He shared body camera footage of him driving up to the scene at about 9:15 p.m. and contacting a man walking away. In the footage, Sanders can be heard telling the man to stop walking because he’s walking down the middle of the road with his back to traffic.

Sanders gets out of his patrol vehicle and approaches the man, who can be seen standing on a sidewalk with his hands up. He informs the man he has warrants out for his arrest and directs him to walk towards him.

Instead, the man starts running down the sidewalk. The footage then becomes blurry as Sanders starts pursuing him on foot across Marvin Road Southeast.
“Stop running, you’re going to get tased,” Sanders says in the video.

The man eventually fell “head over heels” through some bushes, Sanders said in his post. Before he could get up, Sanders tackled him to the ground and placed him under arrest.

“I didn’t do anything, bro,” the man can be heard saying repeatedly in the video.

Sanders said the man had multiple warrants out of King County for theft and a court order violation. He said a deputy drove the man to King County and where he was booked into jail.
