A police chase involving a Range Rover sped through Cypress Lakes Golf Course in Texas on Tuesday and was caught on camera by nearby golfers.

The fiasco began when authorities initiated a traffic stop and the driver, later identified as Grey Martinez, 20, refused to stop, Precinct 4 said in Facebook post. This led police officers on a pursuit of the vehicle.

“We were warming up before the round and the last thing we expected to see is after we hit a drive out and admiring the distance is a range rover comes flying over the top of the hill,” said Philip Morgan, the golfer who filmed the chase, according to News 4 San Antonio.

“Then, I saw a police car and it was like being in Grand Theft Auto,” Morgan said, according to ABC News 13.

Martinez eventually lost control of the vehicle and crashed in the Fairfield subdivision, authorities said. He and his passenger, 19-year-old Trevor Passmore, reportedly fled the scene on foot.

Authorities were able to apprehend Martinez, who allegedly dropped an AK-47 when he fled from the crashed Range Roger reported ABC News 13. While being taken into custody, he spit on a deputy, said the Precinct. Passmore, on the other hand, was later found by authorities at his residence and taken into custody. He was allegedly in his swimming pool when police arrived, reported ABC News 13. (RELATED: Police Chase A Car In The Bronx In Insane Viral Video)

Martinez is being charged with Felony Evading in a Motor Vehicle and Harassment of a Public Servant, according to the Precinct 4 news release. Passmore is being charged with Evading Arrest.

“I’m just glad nobody got hurt, because there were a lot of people on the golf course so that could have ended in a terrible way,” Morgan said, ABC News 13 reported.

Readers,

Instead of sucking up to the political and corporate powers that dominate America, The Daily Caller is fighting for you — our readers. We humbly ask you to consider joining us in this fight.

Now that millions of readers are rejecting the increasingly biased and even corrupt corporate media and joining us daily, there are powerful forces lined up to stop us: the old guard of the news media hopes to marginalize us; the big corporate ad agencies want to deprive us of revenue and put us out of business; senators threaten to have our reporters arrested for asking simple questions; the big tech platforms want to limit our ability to communicate with you; and the political party establishments feel threatened by our independence.

We don't complain -- we can't stand complainers -- but we do call it how we see it. We have a fight on our hands, and it's intense. We need your help to smash through the big tech, big media and big government blockade.

We're the insurgent outsiders for a reason: our deep-dive investigations hold the powerful to account. Our original videos undermine their narratives on a daily basis. Even our insistence on having fun infuriates them -- because we won’t bend the knee to political correctness.

One reason we stand apart is because we are not afraid to say we love America. We love her with every fiber of our being, and we think she's worth saving from today’s craziness.

Help us save her.

A second reason we stand out is the sheer number of honest responsible reporters we have helped train. We have trained so many solid reporters that they now hold prominent positions at publications across the political spectrum. Hear a rare reasonable voice at a place like CNN? There’s a good chance they were trained at Daily Caller. Same goes for the numerous Daily Caller alumni dominating the news coverage at outlets such as Fox News, Newsmax, Daily Wire and many others.

Simply put, America needs solid reporters fighting to tell the truth or we will never have honest elections or a fair system. We are working tirelessly to make that happen and we are making a difference.

Since 2010, The Daily Caller has grown immensely. We're in the halls of Congress. We're in the Oval Office. And we're in up to 20 million homes every single month. That's 20 million Americans like you who are impossible to ignore.

We can overcome the forces lined up against all of us. This is an important mission but we can’t do it unless you — the everyday Americans forgotten by the establishment — have our back.

Please consider becoming a Daily Caller Patriot today, and help us keep doing work that holds politicians, corporations and other leaders accountable. Help us thumb our noses at political correctness. Help us train a new generation of news reporters who will actually tell the truth. And help us remind Americans everywhere that there are millions of us who remain clear-eyed about our country's greatness.

In return for membership, Daily Caller Patriots will be able to read The Daily Caller without any of the ads that we have long used to support our mission. We know the ads drive you crazy. They drive us crazy too. But we need revenue to keep the fight going. If you join us, we will cut out the ads for you and put every Lincoln-headed cent we earn into amplifying our voice, training even more solid reporters, and giving you the ad-free experience and lightning fast website you deserve.

Patriots will also be eligible for Patriots Only content, newsletters, chats and live events with our reporters and editors. It's simple: welcome us into your lives, and we'll welcome you into ours.

We can save America together.

Become a Daily Caller Patriot today.
