Man Fleeing Police Causes Multiple Car Wrecks

A man will be arrested upon release from the hospital after Charlotte-Mecklenburg police said he was responsible for causing a chaotic series of events in south Charlotte Thursday night which ended in multiple car crashes and left two officers hurt. Police initially were alerted about 25-year-old Terry Dennis after an off-duty officer was flagged down by a citizen and told Dennis was slumped over his steering wheel in the parking lot of the Arboretum around 5:45 p.m. When the officer approached Dennis, he became combative, police said.
