Posted on Mar 27, 2010

Police from Currituck County, North Carolina were led on a wild car chase by a Virginia Beach man Saturday.  According to authorities, the chase started in Moyock and ended when the driver crashed his vehicle on Battlefield Boulevard in Chesapeake.

 

The man, Dimitric K. Evans, 28, fled when sherriff’s office deputies from the drug interdiction team tried to stop his Toyota.  Evans sped away along N.C. 168, at speeds reaching over 100 miles per hour.

 

As he drove Evans threw a large amount of heroin, marijuana, and crack cocaine, all of which was recovered by the deputies.  The officers stopped chasing Evans when he crossed into Chesapeake.

 

Evans crashed his Toyota into four vehicles on Battlefield Boulevard at the intersection with Ceader Road.  The crash was not enough to stop him, however, and he crashed again in the 200 block of Battlefield.

 

According to Chesapeake police there were no injuries from either car crash.  After the second crash, police were able to arrest the driver of the Toyota and his two passengers. 

 

As a result of the incident Evans, a Virginia Beach resident, was charged in Chesapeake with four counts of hit and run and in Currituck County with felony fleeing to elude arrest.  One of Evans’ passengers has felony drug charges pending.
