On Saturday, March 14th, 2026 at 0059 hours, I Deputy Tyler Holland located a stolen vehicle which was a 2019 Subaru Crosstrek bearing a temporary Georgia License Plate of [REDACTED] ($18,000.00). The stolen vehicle left the parking lot of [2100 BLOCK] Walton Way (Bonair Apartments) and made a left turn onto Hickman Rd.

I observed the vehicle make a left turn onto Cummings Rd and then a right turn onto Milledge Rd. I Deputy Tyler Holland engaged my emergency blue lights on my marked patrol vehicle, attempting a traffic stop on the stolen vehicle. The Driver/arrestee (Travis Brown) failed to stop for emergency blue lights and attempted to flee by accelerating at a high rate of speed.

Brown made a left turn onto Gardner St, accelerating to speeds of approximately sixty miles per hour in twenty-five miles per hours zone with speed bumps. Brown crossed over Johns Rd and continued straight onto Gardner St where he continued straight at speeds of approximately speeds of fifty-seven miles per hour in a twenty-five miles per hour zone.

Deputies pursued through the parking lot.

I observed Brown made a left turn onto Mt Auburn St, where Brown exited the vehicle at [2300 BLOCK] Mt Auburn St where he fled from the vehicle on foot, Northbound through a wooded area back towards Gardner St. Deputies created a perimeter and contacted Deputy Mclure K-1.

Deputy William Mclure, K-1 responded to the scene where he conducted a track with his K9. The K9 tracked back to Gardner St where we were successfully able to apprehend Brown on the rear porch of [2300 BLOCK] Gardner St.

While being placed into handcuffs, Brown stated that he was homeless and he was sleeping there, but was out of breath, had scratches on his face from running through the woods, and briars in his pants. While being escorted back to the patrol vehicle, Travis Brown kept stating “its the lady across the streets” multiple times. Deputies placed Brown in the back of a marked patrol vehicle and conducted a search of the stolen vehicle. Deputies located a red backpack on the passenger floor board containing prescription medication with Travis Browns name on them.
