Man arrested after leading police on chase in Craven County
BRIDGETON, N.C. (WNCT) — A man was arrested after Bridgeton Police officers tried to stop him on his motorcycle for a traffic offense on June 4, 2025.
The driver, Shayne Hayes, 39, led officers on a chase into New Bern but the chase was stopped due to Hayes' driving and being a danger to the public, officers said.
Warrants were then taken out for Hayes' arrest on felony fleeing to elude arrest and numerous traffic violations.
Officers went to Hayes' home on Yarmouth Road Saturday, June 7th to serve the warrants and they said Hayes ran away into the neighborhood and hid from them.
He was eventually found and taken into custody. Hayes was also charged with resisting, obstructing and delaying arrest and possession of drug paraphernalia.
Hayes was jailed in the Craven County Jail without bond.
