A man who led deputies on a brief foot chase after they stopped him for driving without a rear view mirror was arrested on drug charges, the Bulloch County Sheriff's Office said. Shortly before 9 p.m. Thursday, deputies assigned to the Sheriff's Targeted Enforcement Patrol, or S.T.E.P., unit stopped a maroon 1991 Chevrolet Lumina on North College Street after noticing the rearview mirror was missing, according to a sheriff's office news release and an incident report. The driver of the vehicle, later identified as Ricky Joe Harden, 43, of Lindsay Court, abandoned the vehicle and fled on foot, Anderson said.
