Multiple arrests following a police pursuit Tuesday on Lebanon Road in the Parksville community.
A routine patrol escalated into a high-speed pursuit when a Boyle County Deputy identified a vehicle operated by an individual with a suspended license. The driver, identified as Mark Belcher, allegedly attempted to evade law enforcement by accelerating dangerously and making abrupt turns onto Johnson Branch Road before coming to a stop in a driveway.
The incident led to the quick detention of three individuals. Among them was Brandi Harmon, who reportedly discarded a glass methamphetamine pipe while exiting the vehicle. A subsequent search revealed possession of methamphetamine.
Mark Belcher faces multiple charges including fleeing from police, reckless driving, and driving with a suspended operator's license. Brandi Harmon is charged with possession of a controlled substance, tampering with physical evidence, and drug paraphernalia, along with two counts of contempt of court from Boyle County. The third individual, Bronson Hartman, was arrested on a parole violation warrant and for failing to appear in Boyle County.
All three were lodged in the Boyle County Jail.
