19-year-old Armani Sparks was jailed in the early hours of Friday morning after detectives observed a Gray Dodge Durango swerving in and out of lanes on Jefferson Street. Officers attempted to initiate a traffic stop, but Sparks fled. The police did not chase him but called in for a police helicopter to pursue the vehicle. Tennessee Highway Patrol Aviation followed Sparks to the TSU campus, where he was taken into custody. A search of Mr. Sparks’ person yielded one gram of marijuana, and he was transported to booking.
Armani Sparks of Tansius Drive in Cincinnati, OH, was booked into the Metro Nashville Jail on October 13th, charged with possession or casual exchange and evading arrest in a motor vehicle. A judicial commissioner set his bond at $9,000.
