MIDLAND CITY: 12:14 AM Midland City Police attempted to make a trafficc stop on Highway 231 near Highway 605. The reason for the traffic stop was a Ford F-150 truck with no tag.
The driver apparently felt seeing blue lights on a law enforcent vehicle behind you meant GO and not stop. The driver turned south on Highway 605 from Hughway 231. The speeds were about 43 miles per hour.
The vehicle turned into 13199 Highway 605, wrecking. The driver bailed on foot and began running from the Midland City Police Officer into the wood line.
Multiple law enforcement officers are responding along with K-9 dogs. All officers were instructed to stay out of the woods to allow the K-9 to have an accurate track. The suspect is a white male, glasses and a white shirt.
Failure to Yield – fleeing is a felony in the State of Alabama. The driver probably had misdemeanor offenses until he ran so by not stopping, STUPID, because he will now have at least one felony.
