Jimmy Norman
A Pikeville man was arrested on several charges recently after allegedly leading Kentucky State Police on a vehicle chase before hitting a trooperâs cruiser, then fleeing on foot.
According to an arrest citation written by Trooper Braxton Whitmore, at approximately 10 p.m. on May 13, he was on patrol in the Millard community when he observed a 2001 Toyota Tacoma with expired registration. Whitmore wrote that the driver, later identified as Jimmy Norman, 44, of Road Fork, Pikeville, was not wearing a seat belt, and the trooper attempted to make a traffic stop.
Norman, the citation said, continued to flee on U.S. 460, driving toward U.S. 23 at speeds reaching 90 mph. Norman, the citation said, eventually entered the parking lot of the Shelbiana Food City, circled the parking lot without regard to the people in the parking lot and exited the parking lot.
