Dearborn Man Charged After Multi-Day Semi-Truck Police Chase, Domestic Assault

Ali Ahmed Zbib, a 55-year-old Dearborn man, has been charged with domestic violence, third-degree fleeing and eluding police, and malicious destruction of police property after allegedly assaulting his 42-year-old wife and leading police on a multi-day pursuit in a semi-truck. The incident began early Saturday morning at the couple's home on Argyle Street, after which Zbib fled in a commercial truck, striking a police vehicle as he escaped. Police chased Zbib through multiple cities, including Taylor, Detroit, Westland, and others, but several pursuits were called off due to safety concerns, especially given the risks posed by a high-speed chase involving a semi-truck. Zbib was ultimately apprehended in Detroit on Monday following a surveillance operation. He was arraigned in the 19th District Court with a $100,000 cash/surety bond and his next court date is set for June 18. If convicted, Zbib faces up to five years in prison for fleeing police, four years for property destruction, and 93 days for assault, with authorities commending the collaboration among multiple police departments in bringing him to justice.
