Evansville Police arrested 19 year old Donald Brigham Jr. following a car stop this morning.
Bringham was pulled over by police on Lloyd near Green River for traveling 75mph in a 50mph zone. Once stopped, Bringham got out of the vehicle and ran into a nearby neighborhood.
When the officer radioed the vehicle description into dispatch, another officer who was in the process of taking a stolen vehicle report heard the information. Police were able to quickly determine Brigham had just ran from the vehicle that was being reported stolen.
Additional officers came to the area and set up a perimeter and a police K-9 unit was called in for the search.
Brigham was found hiding in a back yard about a block from where he was first pulled over.
Brigham was treated for a dog bite and released. He was arrested for Auto Theft, Resisting Law Enforcement, Possession of Marijuana, and Driving without a License.
