The suspect vehicle traveled through multiple jurisdictions and into Indiana, before returning to Ohio. Upon reentering Ohio, the pursuit continued through Harrison Township.

During the pursuit, the suspect intentionally struck two marked units from the Cincinnati Police Department (CPD). A second CPD cruiser collided with the suspects on Lees Creek Road near New Biddinger Road, causing the cruiser to overturn onto its side.
