HENDERSONVILLE, TN : 14-year-old crashes stolen car after high-speed chase on the 386 Bypass on Wednesday, 31st July 2019
Hendersonville, Tennessee
A young car thief was arrested in Hendersonville after a high-speed chase and wreck on the 386 Bypass Monday afternoon.
The 14-year-old driver found out what other criminals have also learned. If you run from Hendersonville police, they will chase you relentlessly.
That was the case Monday afternoon after a teenager stole a car in Gallatin and then drove into Hendersonville.
Gallatin Police told News 2, a 14-year-old saw a woman start her Nissan Sentra in the Carrelton Drive sub-division. The woman left her car running and went inside.
Police say the 14-year-old stole the car.
He was later spotted by Hendersonville Police Officer Barry, around Indian Lake Blvd and 386.
The officer went to pull the teen over, and he punched it, quickly and dangerously, driving through traffic at speeds close to 100 mph.
At exit 8, the teen veered wildly from the far left lane, onto the ramp. He lost control, left the road, and went down an embankment. He got on two tires for a moment, almost rolled, but the car came to rest on all four tires.
