Upon arrival, officers observed Sundee Mcclain enter the driver’s seat of the vehicle. Officers attempted to block the vehicle in but Mcclain was able to escape and refused to stop when the officers tried to pull her over.

During a search of Mcclain a glass pipe was found on her person and it was discovered her license was suspended.

Sundee Mcclain was arrested and charged with theft of a vehicle, reckless driving, evading arrest with risk of death or injury to third parties, driving on a suspended license, and unlawful drug paraphernalia. She is currently jailed in lieu of a $23,000 bond.
