A member of the public tackled a man who fled from police during an arrest last week, video from the Tulsa Police Department shows.

Police say an officer was speaking to a suspect identified as Miguel Fernandez, who originally gave a false name. When the officer began questioning him, Fernandez fled.

Video from the officer's body camera shows him running after Fernandez — but before he could make contact with him, a driver jumped out of his pickup truck.

The driver blocked the sidewalk and grabbed the suspect, knocking him to the ground.
