VEHICLE PURSUIT ENDS IN CRASH ON THE EAST FRWY

Yesterday afternoon, Pct. 3 Deputies responded to assist Baytown PD, who was in pursuit of a wanted fugitive. The pursuit initiated in the city limits of Baytown, but the defendant, Shaquita Taylor-Felder, refused to stop while in the city limits leading Baytown PD and Pct. 3 Deputies to I-10 westbound towards Channelview. After crossing the San Jacinto River bridge approaching Monmouth, the suspect left the highway, attempting to get to the service road, with Deputies still immediately behind her. Taylor-Felder overshot the service road causing her vehicle to flip into a deep ditch filled with water and the Deputies marked Tahoe to land on top of the defendant’s vehicle. Taylor-Felder sustained minor injuries and after being evaluated and medically cleared at the emergency room, was taken into custody. Shaquita Taylor-Felder was booked at the Harris County Jail for “aggravated assault w/deadly weapon-2nd degree felony” out of Chambers County, “family assault” out of Harris County, and a new charge of “evading”.
