Video captured by the King County Sheriff's Office Airsupport team shows officers completing a successful PIT maneuver, ending a high-speed chase in Auburn.

The pursuit began Tuesday afternoon in Seattle and traveled through Tukwila, Federal Way, and Kent.

Seattle Police says their officers spotted the green Chevy truck around 1:15 p.m. A department statement says the driver "may have been a suspect wanted for an earlier shooting."

Officers tried to stop the driver of the truck, but he took off at a high rate of speed. Along the chase, the driver struck several vehicles in Seattle and parts of South King County.

The PIT maneuver stopped the suspect at S 277th Street and 57th Avenue S in Auburn.

Seattle Police determined the suspect was not connected to the shooting, but the truck was stolen. He has since been booked into King County Jail.
