Orem Police received a call on Sunday morning saying that a man and a woman were stealing scrap metal from US Synthetics on 1200 South and 1600 West. After leaving the scene, the couple was spotted on University Parkway, where police attempted to stop them. The driver, identified as 39 year-old Howard Talman, sped onto I-15 northbound, reaching speeds nearing 95 miles per hour. Police chased the van for more than 20 minutes through snow and rain, catching the entirety of the chase on a camera mounted on the dash of the police car. Police laid a spike strip down, slowing the van down as Talman continued on flat tires and later, rims.
