Driver Survives 100-Foot Plunge into Long Island Sound During Police Chase

The incident followed a 45-minute high-speed pursuit initiated in response to a domestic violence call.

A driver led police on a 45-minute chase across New York's Long Island, culminating in a 100-foot plunge into Long Island Sound.
The pursuit began when Southold Police responded to a domestic violence call. The driver, identified as Roger Foster from Florida, had two active warrants.
Reaching speeds of up to 100 mph, Foster maneuvered through traffic before driving off a cliff in Greenport, landing in 3 to 5 feet of water.
Officers dived into the water, rescued Foster, who complained of pain but had no visible injuries, and arrested him.
Charges against Foster are pending, and he was taken to Peconic Bay Medical Center for evaluation. No other injuries were reported during the pursuit.
