A Knoxville man is in custody after a lengthy police chase.
35 year-old Anthony Dennis is facing several charges, including felony reckless endangerment, after the chase.
He was spotted by police Friday night at his home on Langly Place and officers who tried to take him into custody for an existing warrant but he left the scene in his car on Parkside Drive “driving extremely erratic.”
From there, the report outlines how Dennis drove through residential neighborhoods, along Kingston Pike and even on Pellissippi Parkway in the wrong direction.
During the chase, which spanned several officers as they made the decision to pull back and others reengaged, Dennis drove dangerously.
Officers outlined how Dennis swerved in front of cars while driving in the wrong direction, moving out of the way at the last second to avoid hitting them before he eventually crashed on Ball Camp Byington Road in the Hardin Valley area.
According to the report, Dennis then tried to run on foot, but was caught by an officer’s K9.
Dennis is wanted out of Virginia for a felony violation of parole.
