An Arkansas woman is suing state police after a two-minute car chase led to her vehicle flipping over when she was two months pregnant, citing concerns that “reckless” conduct of a state trooper endangered her unborn baby.

In July 2020, Nicole Harper, 38, was going 84 mph in a 70 mph zone on U.S. Highway 167 in Jacksonville, Arkansas, when a trooper attempted to pull her over. The incident led to a two-minute car chase, followed by the state trooper intentionally bumping her car, resulting in it being flipped over.
