Grayson Vanrheen, 27, brandished an AK-47 when he approached a woman outside of a pool hall early Friday morning. A 110 mph car chase ended with his arrest.
Houston police have arrested a man they say carjacked a woman outside of a pool hall Friday morning as Tropical Storm Imelda continued pelting the city and region.
Vanrheen took off northbound on Beltway 8—one of the city's loops—before venturing into a neighborhood and eventually major roadways through town. Authorities said the man ran several stop signs and red lights, and that he nearly crashed into several vehicles. Vanrheen turned east onto Westheimer—a major road in Houston—and crashed into a median. He got out of the car and fled on foot into a nearby parking garage of an apartment complex.
