This weekend, an alarming incident unfolded in Four Oaks as a suspect stole a vehicle from a convenience store parking lot. Law enforcement across Johnston County sprang into action, and minutes later, the stolen car was detected by Selma Police. A high-speed pursuit ensued after the suspect resisted stopping, dangerously maneuvering on Highway 96 near Selma. In his attempt to evade arrest, the suspect nearly triggered a head-on crash, resulting in a chain-reaction collision involving multiple vehicles, among them a sheriff’s cruiser. The suspect has been detained and now faces numerous charges. Thankfully, only minor injuries were reported.
