On 12\/7\/09 at 1:00 PM, Deputies Chris Yeatts and Chuck Bates (riding together) were utilizing moving radar on HWY 58 (Philpott Rd.), when they met a white vehicle traveling approx. 80 mph heading westbound. They turned around on the vehicle, at which time the vehicle accelerated to speeds exceeding 120 mph. The pursuit continued into Pittsylvania Co., and then right onto Swedwood Rd., at which time the deputies lost sight of the vehicle. As they approached the Cane Creek Pkwy. intersection, they spotted the vehicle on the side of the road off Cane Creek Pkwy., where the 2 occupants of the vehicle were switching sides. The deputies turned around and got behind the vehicle again, at which time the vehicle, a white 2005 Hyundai, took off again. After approx. 3\/10 of a mile, the vehicle stopped. Wendell G. Estes, age 34,of 254 Hairston St., Danville, was charged with felony eluding police, and misdemeanor driving on a suspended license. Donald W. Johnson, age 20, of the same address, was charged with felony eluding police.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
