Placeholder Image
A man who was on the lamb for two years after leading lawmen on a high speed chase through a subdivision is now back in town and facing a mountain of charges. The suspect, Roy A. Gibbs, 39, was arraigned Tuesday before General Sessions Judge Bill Locke on charges of reckless driving, evading arrest, reckless endangerment with an automobile, speeding by going 70 in a 35-mile-per-hour zone, second-offense driving on a revoked license, running a stop sign, driving without insurance, driving with open alcohol in the car, driving an unregistered vehicle and violation of probation. He will face hearing next Thursday morning.
