A confrontation with police officers is often nerve-wracking even if only a minor infraction has occurred. Unfortunately, when faced with such a predicament, many people may panic and react in a way that could make life more complicated for them. In fact, a man in North Carolina was recently arrested on drug charges -- among others -- after police say he led them on a chase.
The incident that led to the man's arrest reportedly happened on a day in mid-April. Police claim that they noticed a driver pulling out of a parking lot onto a North Carolina road; the registration, according to reports, had been revoked. When officers attempted to pull over the driver -- later identified as a 27-year-old man -- they say that he fled. During the chase that allegedly ensued, the man is said to have driven through a yard before heading south in the northbound lanes of a North Carolina roadway.
