Charges Filed After High-Speed Chase in Oklahoma City
April 29, 2025 – Oklahoma City, OK
Authorities have filed charges following a thrilling high-speed chase that unfolded through Oklahoma City earlier in April. According to court documents, the incident began on April 9th when Midwest City police attempted a routine traffic stop on Antwon Gordon for failing to wear his seatbelt.
Instead of complying, Gordon allegedly took off, leading officers on a chase that reached speeds exceeding 100 miles per hour. The pursuit traversed several city streets and ultimately ended in a northwest Oklahoma City neighborhood, specifically near Northwest 16th and Classen.
In a decisive move, police utilized a tactical maneuver to bring the chase to a close. After halting Gordon’s vehicle, officers conducted a search and reportedly discovered cocaine, which they believe was intended for sale.
As a result, Gordon faces multiple charges: eluding law enforcement, possession of a controlled substance, and failure to wear a seatbelt. This incident illustrates not only the dangers of high-speed pursuits but also highlights ongoing issues related to drug trafficking in the region.
Midwest City police have affirmed their commitment to public safety and the apprehension of individuals involved in illegal activities. The case continues to unfold as authorities gather evidence and prepare for further legal proceedings.
For local residents and community leaders, this incident serves as a stark reminder of the need for vigilance and the importance of law enforcement in ensuring safety on the streets of Oklahoma City.
