Police say the driver -- who had a camera affixed to his roof -- was going 'well over 100 miles per hour' before his arrest (via toofab)
Authorities claim the vehicle"refused to stop" and was seen"traveling at speeds well over 100 miles per hour and was passing several other vehicles," as police tried to catch up. While he slowed down before running a red light, the driver allegedly continued into the neighboring county, where his getaway came to an abrupt end.
Cops say the driver"lost control" while attempting to make a turn and"drove through a yard and then into a creek where it became stuck." Photos shared by the police department show the vehicle, with the camera affixed to its roof, halfway in the water. The driver was later identified by authorities as Coleman Ferguson, who allegedly told police"he worked for Google and was scared to stop."
After being treated at a nearby hospital, he was arrested for Resisting Law Enforcement with a vehicle, a felony, and sent to the Henry County Jail, where he remains in custody.
