A Hendricks County man was arrested Tuesday afternoon after a short vehicle pursuit. At approximately 4:43 p.m., a Bartholomew County Sheriff’s Deputy was at the intersection of 800 S/S US 31 when a vehicle, reported as a possible drunk driver, passed.

The deputy pulled behind the vehicle and observed it crossing the center line multiple times. The deputy tried to initiate a traffic stop, but the vehicle continued southbound. Indiana State Police responded moments later and deployed stop-sticks, ending the chase.

The driver, 46-year-old Jason Daniel Taylor, of Brownsburg, was arrested on preliminary charges of:

Operating a Vehicle while Intoxicated
Operating a Vehicle with a BAC of .15 or more
Resisting Law Enforcement in a Vehicle

Taylor remains behind bars on $20,000 bond.

No injuries were reported.
