Eastpointe, Michigan — A man stopped by Eastpointe Police for reckless driving on Gratiot Avenue just north of Eight Mile Road pointed a gun at police and fled the scene on foot, officers reported. 28-year-old Deaz Fitzgerald Titus Jr. was driving an all terrain vehicle on June 15, 2022 when police pulled him over and approached him when they noticed what appeared to be a firearm in his shorts. When officers attempted to restrain him, Titus pulled away and attempted to escape. As one officer deployed his taser, Titus lost his balance, fell to the ground, and began to roll over. Police said Titus pulled out his gun and pointed it at the officers.
The second police officer deployed his stun gun, but it didn’t have any effect. The two officers then took cover. Because there was heavy vehicle and pedestrian traffic, they did not fire their weapons, officials said. Titus got up off the ground and fled on foot into a residential area. Police set up a perimeter and a Detroit Police K-9 unit was called. The police dog led them to where a man was hiding in a garage. Officers arrested Titus without incident. They also recovered an illegal firearm where the subject and officers first encountered each other.
Titus was arraigned June 16 in 38th District Court in Eastpointe. He is charged with assault on a police officer, assault with a dangerous weapon, breaking & entering, felon in possession of a firearm, felon in possession of ammunition, and carrying a concealed weapon. He is in the Macomb County Jail for now being held on $1 million bond. According to the Michigan Department of Corrections, Titus was released from prison in 2019 after serving nearly three years after pleading guilty to weapons charges stemming from an incident in 2014.

D@mn
dang.. he was not shot and still alive? waste of a human and tax dollars
And if we lived in a fully Liberal country cops would only be allowed to carry tasers and news reports would be about about the struggle of misguided individuals who were forced to kill officers.
Where the rest of the video???
But cops just shoot black people for fun dur
With video evidence like this, throw the book at those idiots and don't let them out after 1 year to re-offend.
HAHAHHAHAA NAGGERS!!
I used to live there. Thank God those days are over but I LOVED MARTA!
More gun laws definitely would have prevented him from pulling a gun on the cops. What a joke.
I was in law enforcement for 20 years. These two cops are stupid, and lucky to be alive, and need retraining on the use of force.
That might be the worst traffic stop I've ever seen
Well where’s the rest of the video????
Wtf no full video
CNN, armed gang known as the blues brothers steal a man's 4-wheeler and takes him hostage.
Hahahaha paranoid no gun
Once again, an illegal weapon was used. Remember that when someone harps about gun control. It's about disarming YOU not the criminals.
What happened afterwards???
I went to channel 7…they had it!!!
Awe… not enough bullets in him.
Mr Tits wasn’t a good ole boy this time
ARE YOU FNK KIDDING ME!!!!!…WERE IS THE REST OF IT????
Felon with a burner tucked in his Walmart gym shorts decides it's a good idea to ride a 4 wheeler on public roads.
4 videos in one day LETS GOOO!!
I used to work in that city, its right on the border of Detroit city limits, people tend to forget and go too far north and then police get them, if they stayed in Detroit the police dont bother with them for things like dirt bikes and quads half the time.
Dude was dressed for the MAGA Rally 🤣
Shooting across traffic .. Really WTH!!!
Why would he stop lmao
Next time show the whole video
Plz post the recent officer involved shootings in Pueblo,Colorado there was 2 different ones
Not much of a climax here.
It amazes me that these idiots will carry guns while driving 4 wheelers in which you'll most likely get pulled over.
Another released felon who got his hands on a gun…. Nice job Judicial system.
You can always tell when a thug is carrying a gun…his pants are not down around his thighs
He served only 3 years 😂
Police always asking "where the gun go?" but not "how the gun doing?" 😔
And people want u to feel bad when black peoples get killed by the police come look at this shit 😂😂😂
At least they got the aspiring rapper in the end.
I hope they ended ol June bug for that.
Oh shit hes got a gun run and let other cops take care of it huh how about pull and smoke that fool
Dude is reallllllllly lucky.
Also, "WhY dIdNt TheY jUsT TasE HiM???"
Cool perfectly effective less lethal option you have there. It would be a shame if it… only worked like 50% of the time…

There's no such thing as an illegal firearm
