Hamilton County, TN – On the evening of April 19, 2024, a Hamilton County Sheriff’s Office Deputy attempted to make a traffic stop on a Dodge Ram truck on Apison Pike. The truck was observed making several improper lane changes and an improper turn.

The suspect vehicle would then travel down Old Lee Highway onto Ardmore Drive when it began circling around the apartment complex until it reached 4644 Ardmore Drive at which time the driver exited the vehicle without putting it into park.
