TRE: MADE A TURN FOR THE WORSE. >> WHEN TROOPERS ASKED HIM TO EXIT THE VEHICLE, THAT’S WHEN HE DID NOT EXIT AND FLED IN THE VEHICLE SOUTHBOUND ON I-65. TRE: THE MAN BEHIND THE WHEEL, ACCORDING TO INVESTIGATORS, WAS ANTHONY GLENN. HE WAS WANTED ON MULTIPLE FELONY WARRANTS OUT OF KENTUCKY ON EVADING POLICE AND WANTON ENDANGERMENT CHARGES. >> APPARENTLY, HE’S WILLING TO FLEE AND HAS DONE SO BEFORE.

TRE: AND PUT AN END TO WHAT, OFFICIALS SAY, COULD’VE BEEN MUCH WORSE. >> FORTUNATELY, FOR EVERYBODY INVOLVED, THE SITUATION WAS RESOLVED. WE WERE ABLE TO TAKE HIM INTO CUSTODY, PEACEFULLY, WITHOUT HIM BEING HURT, WITHOUT ONE OF OUR OFFICERS BEING INJURED, OR ANOTHER ME
