Trooper Yates' Narrative: On 1/9/2021 at approximately 11:04 pm, Troop H dispatch advised of a noncustodial kidnapping that happened in Tennessee with the suspect vehicle being tracked to our area. Trooper James Ray located the vehicle on Interstate 40 near the Franklin/Crawford County line. The vehicle was traveling westbound. Trooper Ray followed the vehicle to the 16 mile marker westbound on Interstate 40 where I was waiting. Trp. Ray, Tfc Shawn Ellis, and myself discussed performing a Box In maneuver to keep the suspect from fleeing with the juvenile. I set my vehicle up in front of the suspect vehicle. Trp. Ray was behind the suspect vehicle, and Tfc Ellis was on the driver side of the suspect vehicle. As we initiated the stop, the suspect rammed my patrol car in the left rear bumper area. I was able to maintain my position in front of the suspect vehicle as the suspect rammed my patrol car a second time in the middle of my rear bumper. The suspect then attempted to pass me on the right shoulder of the interstate where the vehicle side swiped my passenger side. The suspect vehicle went off the shoulder of the interstate into the grassy area. The suspect regained control of the vehicle then rammed the passenger side of my patrol car. I used the passenger side of my car and pushed the suspect vehicle back into the grassy area on the shoulder. Both my vehicle and the suspect vehicle rotated counterclockwise. As we became perpendicular to the interstate, the suspect vehicle began driving toward the pavement. At this point the damage to my vehicle had disabled my ability to steer. I was able to accelerate and again make contact with the suspect vehicle which caused both vehicles to spin clockwise and leave the roadway to the north. I was able to get my vehicle stopped. The suspect vehicle was also disabled and boxed in by assisting units. *** Trooper Ray's Narrative (edited out duplicate details from above): A special agent with the Tennessee Bureau of Investigations was actively pinging the cell phone of the alleged female involved in the abduction.
