News Herald Arrest Report

Man refuses to identify himself, hides
 
A homeless man is facing charges after refusing to reveal his identity and hiding from police after stealing a vehicle.
 
Loudon County Sheriff’s Office Deputy Riley Miller watched Friday a white Mazda Protege traveling west down McGhee Boulevard. Miller attempted to catch up with the Mazda to run the vehicle’s tag, but the driver turned the vehicle’s lights off and disregarded stop signs at Rock Springs Road and McGhee Boulevard.
 
Miller continued to try to catch the vehicle on Rock Springs Road, but the driver disregarded another stop sign at Old Highway 95.
 
Miller got near the vehicle at Ash Avenue and activated his blue lights and sirens, but the vehicle failed to stop.
“I followed the vehicle up Ash Avenue where it entered Sunset Hills apartment complex, where they drove through a yard and came back out onto Rogers Circle,” Miller wrote in his report.
 
Miller saw the vehicle turn right onto Rogers Circle and waited for the Mazda to come back to the other end of the street. Miller found the vehicle abandoned in a driveway off Rogers Circle.
 
LCSO responded with canines and found Joshua David Richards, 30, Clinton, and Scott Ferril Meyers, 36, Powell.
“The third subject that was hiding continued to run from officers and was taken into custody hiding on the porch of Church Drive,” Miller wrote in his report. “John Doe would never tell us his name.”
 
“John Doe” was later identified through fingerprinting as Zachary Allen Clabough, 24, homeless.
 
The vehicle was confirmed stolen out of Anderson County. Meyers and Richards both wrote statements that Clabough was driving and in possession of the vehicle.
 
Clabough was charged with theft, reckless endangerment and resisting arrest and held without bond.
 
Richards was charged with resisting arrest and assisting other agency and held without bond.
 
Meyers was charged with resisting arrest and held without bond.
