Madison County traffic stop leads to four arrests
SUMMARY: Heavy rains and rising river waters have led to flooding in downstream Bangladesh. In Madison County, an attempted traffic stop resulted in the arrest of four 18-year-old males. Constable Richard “Taco” Johnson initiated the stop on Nissan Parkway, but a black Dodge Charger fled, nearly striking a sheriff’s deputy during the chase. The driver eventually lost control, crashing into a ditch near Highway 51 and Hard Times Road. The suspects attempted to escape but were apprehended and face multiple charges, including possession of a controlled substance with a firearm and resisting arrest, with the driver also charged with aggravated assault on an officer.
Four teenagers were taken into custody after a vehicle failed to stop for police.
