Carrollton police have released dash cam footage of a high-speed chase involving a U-Haul truck that led to the arrest of two suspects on March 5th. The chase began at a gas station and ended in a residential alley, with the suspects charged with evading arrest and outstanding warrants from other counties.

Why it matters

Vehicle chases pose a serious public safety risk, and this incident highlights the challenges police face in apprehending suspects who attempt to flee. The discovery of various personal documents and financial cards in the U-Haul also suggests the suspects may have been involved in broader criminal activity beyond just the chase itself.

The details

The chase began when the two suspects, 29-year-old Kasia Martin and 37-year-old Shane Lusk, left a Chevron gas station and drove eastbound on East Trinity Mills Road, eventually getting onto the President George Bush Turnpike. The U-Haul truck drove erratically, going over medians and weaving through parking lots and residential streets in an attempt to evade police before officers were able to pull the vehicle over near Camel Drive and Hunters Ridge. A search of the U-Haul uncovered various credit/debit cards, vehicle titles, tax documents, passports, and other personal identification items.

  • The chase occurred on March 5, 2026.
  • Lusk had an active probation violation warrant out of Dallas County for fraud use of identifying information.
  • Martin had an active theft warrant out of Denton County.
