NASHVILLE, Tenn. (WKRN) — A 26-year-old man is facing a long list of charges after police said he drove at speeds of up to 110 mph Thursday night in an attempt to evade from officers. According to the Metro Nashville Police Department, officers were in the area of Bell Road and Interstate 24 when they observed a Dodge Charger traveling 20 mph over the speed limit. Man robbed of $30K Rolex after meeting woman on Broadway, police say Law enforcement reportedly attempted to stop the car in the 700 block of Bell Road, but the driver refused to pull over. A police helicopter followed the Charger as it drove on I-24 West at speeds of 110 mph with no lights on in heavy traffic. Officials said the police helicopter crew relayed to ground units that the Charger got off the interstate and entered a Hermitage neighborhood. That's when officers successfully deployed spike strips, causing the driver to drive to a nearby Hickory Highlands Drive apartment complex.

The driver—identified as 26-year-old Luis Hernandez—was taken into custody a short time later. | READ MORE | In addition to the backpack found in Hernandez's path, police said they found a second backpack in the Charger. Both backpacks reportedly contained narcotics, including 337.2 grams of meth, 662.8 grams of marijuana, THC products, three digital scales, and plastic baggies. Police said a Glock .380 handgun, which was reported stolen during a vehicle burglary in Williamson County, was also recovered from the Charger. According to Metro police, Hernandez was free on a $27,000 bond from a February 2024 arrest for felony marijuana possession, evading arrest, and driving without a license. He reportedly had five outstanding warrants for failure to appear on those charges. Booking records show Hernandez now faces 18 different charges for Thursday's incident, including five counts of failure to appear, felony drug possession, reckless endangerment (motor vehicle), theft of a firearm, evading arrest, gun possession during the commission of a felony, and driving without a license.
