RICHMOND/COLUMBIA COUNTIES, Ga. () – On August 13th at 10:25am, Richmond County Sheriff’s Office Road Patrol units responded to a report of a stolen motor vehicle at 1350 Walton Way. A description of the vehicle was immediately broadcast to all deputies through 911 dispatch.

Deputy Dakota Clark observed the stolen vehicle traveling on Wrightsboro Road and requested additional units before attempting a traffic stop. Once he activated his blue lights and siren, the driver refused to stop, leading deputies through Richmond County and into Columbia County along Washington Road.

The pursuit ended when the suspect pulled into the Raceway at Stevens Creek and Washington Road, where she attempted to flee on foot but was quickly surrounded and taken into custody without incident.

There were no injuries or property damage.

The suspect, identified as Amber Nelson, was arrested and transported to the Charles B. Webster Detention Center.
