STARKVILLE, Miss. (WCBI) — Starkville police are releasing the name of the motorcyclist, who they say got into a wreck while trying to flee from them.
Police arrested 18-year-old Zachary Rhodes, of Mathiston, for “failure to stop a motor vehicle when an officer signals.”
Investigators tell WCBI the wreck happened shortly before 11 a.m., Sunday.
An officer tried to conduct a traffic stop on Jackson Street, when police say Rhodes took off, ran a red light, and hit a Ford Focus making a turn.
Rhodes was then taken to OCH Regional Medical Center with non-life threatening injuries.
The driver of the other car was OK.
