"Deadliest Catch" star Jake Harris was busted for DUI -- and his arrest was filmed from above, courtesy of a Washington State Patrol chopper.
The 24-year-old was pulled over after a witness called 911 about an aggressive driver. The footage -- which is pretty interesting to watch -- shows Jake flunking a field sobriety test.
We're told Jake, whose father Captain Phil Harris died earlier this month, refused to take a blood-alcohol test.
As we previously reported, Jake was arrested on suspicion of DUI, hit-and-run and driving on a suspended license.
He was released on $1,500 bond Saturday and will be in court tomorrow.

This is actually really sad. The poor guy lost his dad recently and now he seems to be drifting in a bad direction (drinking & driving). Hope he's got family & good friends to help him get back to a better place.

I hope they show mercy on the kid and get him the help he needs. I've lost both of my parents and I know how hard it is.

I feel badly for Jake but there is no good excuse for what he did. I hope he can see this before it's too late.
He has got a lot of people rooting for him.

GREAT USE OF TAXPAYER MONEY! Washington State is retarded. FIVE patrol cars and a HELICOPTER for one measley DUI. You know how much taxpayer money they WASTE in Washington? Idiots.
And poor kid's dad just died!! He's heartbroken, no doubt. Lay off!!!

Wow that was un-incredible!!! Next time don't put out such a useless link. I was hoping for something closer to Rodney King getting his ass beat or OJ being followed by a thousand cops...

leave the guy alone- this doesn't need to be posted all over TMZ and the like- grief manifests in a lot of different ways for different people. Yes in the past he's been a wise guy to put it nicely, but even they need a break once in a while

Poor kid, he just lost his dad and needs some help.
Now if there wasn't a pursuit, why would the police use tax payers money to fly over and video tape him when everything was under control!
