Crashing into a tree was how a chase ended by Citrus County Sheriffâs Office deputies earlier this month.
On Dec. 5, deputies were called to the Lecanto home of a vehicle owner where deputies saw Troy Elwood McLean, 46, taking the victimâs vehicle, according to his arrest report.
The arresting deputy reported that McLean was the only person in the stolen vehicle and when deputies approached McLean he sped off. Deputies gave chase and followed McLean to Brooksville in Hernando County where he tried to leave the road, but instead crashed into a tree with the stolen vehicle, according to the arrest report.
