Waldorf, MD – A Maryland man was arrested Saturday afternoon after leading officers on a pursuit involving a stolen Chevrolet Camaro that ended in a crash and foot chase, according to the Charles County Sheriff’s Office.
Authorities said the incident began around 3:30 p.m. on January 6 when deputies spotted the stolen Camaro near Route 5 and Crain Highway in Waldorf. When officers attempted a traffic stop, the driver fled and struck another car near Substation Road, causing the Camaro to overturn onto its roof.
