Attempted Traffic Stop Ends with Pursuit, Arrest

Police arrested a Calvert City man Tuesday morning on several charges after a brief pursuit.

The McCracken County Sheriff's Office says a deputy tried to pull over a vehicle at around 2 a.m. at the intersection of Oaks Road and Milliken Road. The driver, 32-year-old Shannon McClure, fled and crashed at a mobile home park. McClure then fled on foot into a wooded area.

Deputies arrested McClure on charges of failure to wear a seat belt, two counts of second degree fleeing or evading police, reckless driving, failure to produce insurance card, and two outstanding warrants. He was booked into the McCracken County Jail.
