A man is in custody after nearly striking an officer with his vehicle and then refusing to stop for police.
The driver eventually stopped near I-840 and Burnt Knob Road, where the man was taken into custody. Preliminary information indicates officers were investigating after a witness reported seeing the man remove what appeared to be a card skimmer from a gas pump at a gas station on South Church Street. When the first officer arrived on the scene attempted to make contact, the driver nearly ran over the officer and sped away.
The Rutherford County Sheriff's Office assisted with this incident. The investigation remains ongoing and no additional information is available at this time.
