The California Highway Patrol followed a Kia after the driver failed to stop for officers in East Los Angeles.
CHP officers began following the vehicle after it was reportedly seen running a red light.
With a helicopter spotlight on the SUV, the driver drove erratically on the highway and turned off the headlights.
The suspect drove in circles on the shoulder of the highway before driving away again. He stopped shortly afterwards in the middle of the highway and blocked a lane.
The driver continued to act erratically while standing outside the vehicle before attempting to jump into the backseat of a nearby car. When officers arrived, the driver walked to the median before being tasered by police.
Officers closed the CA-91 Freeway to move the driver’s car off the freeway and away from traffic.
