An officer tried to stop a car near Hwy 41 and Covert for a traffic violation. The driver refused to stop and led the officer on a chase through several south side neighborhoods. The chase ended when the driver lost control and struck the front porch at 830 Madison.
The unidentified driver and Thomas ran from the crash scene. Thomas was caught after a foot chase. The driver remains at large. The car involved in the chase had been reported stolen on February 10th. Thomas was charged with trespass and resisting law enforcement.
Thomas was arrested for trespass on December 27th, 2014 after he was caught riding in another stolen car. Because several handguns were found in the car during that incident, he was also charged with possessing a handgun without a permit.
Anyone with information on the driver in today’s incident is asked to call EPD.
