A Little Rock man was arrested Monday on a handful of misdemeanor charges including driving while intoxicated on drugs, fleeing arrest and refusing to submit to a chemical test, according to Arkansas State Police.
John Powers, 37, of Little Rock was originally flagged for traveling 80 miles per hour in a 60 miles per hour zone in Sherwood, according to the report. State police say Powers refused to stop and attempted to flee in his vehicle and on foot.
Powers also faces charges of driving on a suspended license, speeding, failing to stop or yield and using a fake license plate.
Powers' bail is set at $7,500. A court date is scheduled for Oct. 25.
