(Continued from pg 1)<br />

Caught, however, <strong>and</strong><br />

charged by Sweetwater<br />

Police Patrol Officer<br />

Daniel Johnson with<br />

felony fleeing, failing to<br />

stop halt frisk, <strong>and</strong> driving<br />

on revoked license second<br />

offense was George Scott<br />

Mizer of McMinn Street,<br />

Athens.<br />

Johnson said he swerved<br />

<strong>and</strong> brought his patrol car<br />

to a stop on High Street as<br />

Mizer’s truck approached<br />

him, attempting to dodge,<br />

but Mizer fled up the<br />

street at a high rate of<br />

speed toward <strong>Monroe</strong><br />

Street.<br />

As Johnson pursued,<br />

Mizer apparently lost con-<br />

trol <strong>and</strong> slammed into a<br />

fence <strong>and</strong> a tree. He then<br />

dropped from the truck<br />

foot. Johnson said, however,<br />

the flight did not succeed<br />

as Mizer was<br />

apprehended.<br />

A quick check of<br />

Mizer’s driving status determined<br />

his license was<br />

revoked, following a conviction<br />
