GLASGOW — Police arrested last Thursday two people in connection to a pursuit that led authorities from Barren County to Adair County.
Glasgow Police said the pursuit started after an officer attempted to conduct a traffic stop along Park Avenue. A vehicle was allegedly driving through the residential area “at a high rate of speed.” The driver was also driving in a reckless manner.
The vehicle apparently refused to stop, traveled to New Salem Road and then onto Beaver Creek Road before it came to an “abrupt stop.” The driver placed the vehicle in reverse and attempted to crash into a police cruiser but was unsuccessful, according to a news release. The vehicle traveled eastbound along the Louie B. Nunn Cumberland Expressway before it was stopped with a tire deflation device in Adair County.
Police identified the driver as Brandon Shaw, 40, of Park City, and a passenger inside the car as Pamela M. Stinnett, 50, of Glasgow.
Both were arrested and charged with drug-related crimes. Shaw faces several charges relating to failure to register with the sex offender registry, assault, reckless driving and other traffic offenses.
