US EditionSuspect Arrested After Shoving State Trooper, Stealing Patrol Car and Leading I-5 Chase on Christmas Day
Alexander Eugene Smith, 24, faces multiple charges including robbery and DUI after pushing a WSP lieutenant and stealing her patrol car during a high-speed pursuit on I-5.
- On December 25, 2025 a man allegedly pushed a Washington State Patrol lieutenant and stole her patrol car on Interstate 5 near Northgate, Seattle, triggering a pursuit that ended in Lynnwood, Washington.
- A Washington State Patrol lieutenant contacted a person running across the northbound lanes of I-5 at Northgate Way, Seattle, who refused to leave and then stole the lieutenant's cruiser.
- Other WSP units immediately chased the stolen vehicle north, traffic camera video shows troopers used a PIT maneuver to stop it, blocking left and HOV lanes briefly with no injuries reported.
- A judge found probable cause Friday to hold Alexander Eugene Smith, 24, in King County Jail on multiple allegations, and court records show he refused to appear, so bond was not addressed.
- A judge approved a blood draw that was carried out later the afternoon of the arrest, troopers found two glass pipes with dark residue, and the suspect admitted smoking meth earlier.
