July’s indictments included a young man whose attempt to elude a police officer was thwarted by Flock cameras in the City of Gray.
Cody Daesun Song was indicted by a grand jury July 19 for one count of felony fleeing or attempting to elude a police officer and one count of speeding.
Song, 24, was arrested June 6. A report of the arrest by Gray Police Department Lt. Mitch Lovick stated he was on patrol on Gray Highway and Georgia Highway 11 when he observed a red Corvette traveling southbound at a high rate of speed.
Lovick said the radar tone alerted at 97 mph and climbed to 105 as the Corvette passed going the opposite direction. He said he turned around, crossing over the median but could not get another reading on the vehicle because it was increasing in speed.
The lieutenant called the out the description of the car to dispatch and attempted to catch it. GPD Major Chris Williams located the vehicle utilizing a Flock camera and was able to get the tag number.
Lovick said Williams gave him the address on the registration of the vehicle, and he proceeded to the residence. The officer said he found the red Corvette parked in the driveway behind several vehicles, as well as the driver.
Lovick said he asked the driver, identified as Song, why he ran. He said Song told him that he was sorry and made a stupid mistake because he was afraid of getting a ticket.
The lieutenant said the Corvette was searched, and no contraband was found. Song was taken into custody.
