TRUSSVILLE Local law enforcement agencies are searching for a man wanted on several charges after leading Trussville Police on a chase.
On Monday, Feb. 8, an officer with the Trussville Police Department located a vehicle that was the subject of a BOLO (Be on the lookout) by Birmingham Police. The white Scion TC was headed south on Gadsden Highway, around 2 a.m., at a high rate of speed, according to a police report.
The officer attempted to make a traffic stop but the driver refused to pull over, running a red light near the Interstate 459 on-ramp. The officer said the vehicle crossed over into the median and went into a ditch, but turned around and continued onto the roadway. The officer said he had to swerve to avoid colliding with the Scion.
