A high speed chase ended shortly before midnight Tuesday and resulted with an Alexander County man being taken into custody. According to a release from the Alexander County Sheriff’s Office, a deputy attempted to stop a vehicle on Friendship Road for registration violation. The driver failed to stop and tried to elude the officer at what is being termed as a “high rate of speed.” The chase ended a short period of time later near the end of Wittenburg Road and Shorty Miller Road.
