Evansville Police arrested 23 year old DENZAEL JONES on several charges during a car stop at 5:30 Friday night.
Jones was a passenger in the car and was being detained because officers believed there were drugs in the car. When officers tried to handcuff him, Jones shoved an officer and attempted to flee. The officer was able to grab him and continued trying to place him in handcuffs. Jones then struck the officer with his elbow and ran away. Jones was captured after a foot chase and taken into custody without further incident.
Jones has over a dozen prior arrests. He was booked into the Vanderburgh County Jail on Battery on Law Enforcement and Resisting Arrest charges, but has since bonded out.
