Police: Little Rock man jailed after chase, crash

The Arkansas State Police arrested a Little Rock man Tuesday after he drove away from a traffic stop, crashed and tried to escape on foot, an agency spokesman said.

State police spokesman Bill Sadler said officers arrested Reginald Dwayne Andrews, 34, on Tuesday after a chase of about 4 miles that began at 10:45 a.m. near Arch Street and Interstate 30.

Andrews wrecked near the intersection of West 12th and South Woodrow streets, where he got out of the car and ran from officers before being arrested, Sadler said.

Whether anyone was injured in the crash was not immediately clear.

Andrews was in the Pulaski County jail without bond Tuesday night facing charges of driving on a suspended license, DWI fifth offense, theft of property, failure to stop after an accident with injury and three counts of first-degree battery.
