According to officials, Pct. 8 deputies asked HPD to assist them in the chase, which began as a traffic stop attempt near the Gulf Freeway and Griggs around 12:22 a.m. The suspect, who has been identified as Justin Dupree Tolliver, 41, reportedly fled all the way to Katy in a white Buick while driving more than 100 mph, investigators said.
