Hostage situation streamed on Facebook Live sparks police chase

A kidnapper who live streamed himself abducting a man has been arrested after the victim's mother spotted the video and called the police.
Terry Miller had agreed to give acquaintance Justin Green a ride to Charleston, West Virginia, on Monday.
But the favor quickly turned into a nightmare after Green, who was carrying a knife, began acting increasingly erratically and attacked Miller, punching and stabbing him repeatedly, and threatening to kill him.
Cops were tipped off to the terrifying hostage situation after Green, a 31-year-old veteran from Charleston, began streaming the ride on Facebook live.
Troopers caught up with the vehicle on the Route 119 and what followed was a police chase for more than 60 miles.
'While the troopers were behind the vehicle, troopers could see a knife through the back window of the truck. They could see altercations going on between the driver and the passenger. The passenger would start hitting the victim while he was driving,' Sgt. John Dotson told WCHS-TV.
By the time they caught up with the truck, the victim had multiple injuries to his neck, wrist and arm, and a stab wound to his leg. The final Facebook live video showed him bleeding from his wrist and neck where Green is believed to have held a knife to his neck.
Miller was taken to hospital while Green was arrested and charged with attempted murder and malicious assault. He was also found in possession with the intent to deliver a controlled substance after a large quantity of meth was recovered from the truck.
Green had reportedly been using the drug during the hostage situation.
Facebook video reveals how the initially jovial atmosphere in the truck, quickly escalated into a tense stand off as Green began acting erratically.
Green appeared paranoid in the footage, demanding to know who Miller was speaking to after he answered a phone call, and later snatching the phone from his hands.
As the situation became increasingly strained, Green taunted his vicitm, asking why he wasn't as chatty as he had been earlier in the trip, before demanding Miller took him to the mall.
Miller told troopers his West Virginia abductor began threatening to kill him, saying he would 'put him in a body bag and he was going to be famous.'
'Why me?' he asked before Green replied, telling him to 'shut the **** up.'
The final Facebook live clip shows a clearly shaken Miller, who has blood on his wrist and around his neck, begging Green to keep calm and not do anything stupid.
'Don't, don't!' he told Green, who had obscured half his camera lens and was keeping himself mostly out of shot. 'Chill, chill, please chill. I ain't trying nothing.
'I ain't done nothing to you! I'm trying to get home alive!'
Thankfully, Miller's mom was alerted to the video, which was being streamed on Green's Facebook profile under the alias Billy Crystal, and called the cops.
After nearly an hour's chase down the Route 119, Miller slammed on the brakes near the Lenore exit in Mingo County, and officers rushed to the vehicle.
The case is a first for West Virginia State Police. Most criminals are not stupid enough to record, and then publicly post, evidence of themselves committing crime.
Sgt.Dotson said those who do 'don't really care if they get caught or not, because they are putting it on Facebook, but it does make the case a lot easier to be able to prove,' Dotson said.
Green is being held on a $75,000 bond.
