BRIDGEPORT, CONNECTICUT— Footage filmed earlier this month from inside a car being chased at high speed by cops is going viral. <br /> <br />Video of the incident was posted to social media on Nov. 4 with the hashtag “blacklivesmatter”. The man who filmed it has been identified as Mikhail Salmon, and the driver as Haile Wilson. <br /> <br />According to the Connecticut Post, the cops were on the lookout for a guy named Ali who was dealing drugs out of a gray Audi sedan. Salmon and Wilson were allegedly driving a car that matched that description when the chase went down on Nov. 1. <br /> <br />Police say they’d tried to stop them when the car suddenly reversed, crashing into an undercover cop’s vehicle. <br /> <br />Next, the car is said to have nearly hit a cop in uniform, prompting another officer to open fire. This reportedly made Wilson speed off, and police followed in a high-speed pursuit. <br /> <br />The car soon struck several other vehicles and crashed into a tree. Salmon and Wilson tried to flee, but were detained and charged following a short chase on foot, the Connecticut Post reported, citing police. <br /> <br />Wilson was charged with reckless driving, engaging police in a pursuit and attempted assault on a police officer. He’s being held on $100,000 bond. <br /> <br />His buddy, Salmon, meanwhile, was held on $5,000 bond and charged with interfering with police, but later released.
