Two suspects were arrested on Interstate 24 after stealing a Rolls-Royce vehicle out of Georgia and speeding at nearly 180 mph, the Tennessee Highway Patrol said.
On May 4, THP’s Chattanooga District responded to a BOLO from the Georgia State Patrol that their troopers were pursuing a stolen Rolls-Royce out of Georgia.
THP Sergeant David McVey witnessed the stolen vehicle speeding at 177 mph on I-24 westbound in Marion County, Tennessee.
The stolen vehicle passed a Porsche 944 and caused the driver of the Porsche to crash into the rear of the Rolls-Royce.
Both vehicles pulled to the shoulder of the interstate at mile marker 127, where two males exited the Rolls-Royce and attempted to physically remove or carjack the driver of the Porsche.
Sergeant McVey apprehended the two male suspects.
The driver, Tyler O. Long, 20, and a juvenile — both from Jackson, Tennessee — were taken into custody without incident and taken to the Grundy County Sheriff’s Office.
