Authorities said a man had an open can of beer and a PCP-laced cigarette in his car as he led them on a pursuit from Millican to Navasota on Friday night.

The pursuit began northbound on Texas 6 south of F.M. 159 as a trooper tried to stop a vehicle with a defective lamp at 11:19 p.m., according to the arrest report.

The driver ignored the trooper's lights and sirens, taking the F.M. 159 exit, heading south on the feeder road and avoiding spike strips thrown by a Grimes County deputy before exiting the highway at F.M. 3090 and stopping at an apartment complex, according to the arrest report.

Authorities said the man initially refused to get out of the vehicle and had to be immobilized with a Taser when he did exit the car as he continued to refuse to comply with the officer's commands. The man's eyes were glassy and he "reeked" of PCP as he was being taken into custody, the trooper said in his report. He then defecated on himself in the patrol car, authorities said.

Broderick Wayne Sanders, 33, was charged with third-degree felony possession of PCP, which is punishable by up to 10 years in prison, state jail felony evading arrest in a vehicle, punishable by up to two years in jail, as well as misdemeanor driving while intoxicated and resisting arrest.

He remained behind bars Saturday in lieu of $74,000 bail.
