According to the Police
Two passengers, a man and a woman, exited the car and told police they didn’t know Azad. The woman later said that she only knew him as “K,” and that there were no signs of him being drunk.
“Driver bailed towards the lake, headed eastbound,” Heifort reported on his radio.
A state patrol helicopter with a thermal imaging system, police K-9s and officers from the Plymouth Police Department were called onto the scene.
“Police K-9! You’re under arrest! Give yourself up now! Dog will be set! Dog will find you! Dog will bite you!” an officer yelled while searching through the woods.
A hat was eventually found, however, after about an hour of looking, police claim they failed to locate Azad and never came into direct contact with him that day.
“He’s long gone at this point,” Officer Joshua Heasley said, minutes before turning off his body camera.
