10-time convicted felon accused of dangerous car chase that lasted more than 30 miles
The man accused of intentionally ramming two police cars and then leading officers on a dangerous pursuit for 30 miles is a ten-time convicted felon, according to court documents.
A criminal records check showed Brandon Wilburn, 32, has been arrested and convicted for more than a dozen crimes - including assault, robbery, DUI, and being in possession of a stolen vehicle.
Wilburn has not yet been charged in Wednesday's pursuit, but prosecutors told KOMO News his lengthy rap sheet may have been the reason why he allegedly fled from authorities.
According to the Bellevue Police Department, the chase began when officers said they spotted Wilburn driving a stolen GMC Yukon in the vicinity of the Factoria Mall. According to court papers, officers used two police patrol vehicles to block Wilburn in and prevent him from escaping. One of the officers then exited his patrol vehicle and approached Wilburn, according to court papers.
It was at that point that officers said Wilburn deliberately rammed into their squad cars in order to avoid arrest.
