A Bulloch County sheriff's sergeant stopped a fleeing driver early Sunday by using his own patrol vehicle to force the speeding SUV to a stop. Statesboro police had issued a lookout for a white SUV involved in an earlier chase, and when Bulloch County sheriff's Deputy Ian Scruggs spotted it on G.W. Oliver Road at Cross Creek Road, the vehicle fled when he tried to make a traffic stop, according to Bulloch County Sheriff Noel Brown. The driver, later identified as Corey Daniel Early of Young Avenue in Savannah, continued at a high rate of speed as other deputies, including Bulloch County sheriff's Sgt. Rey Rodriguez, joined in pursuit.
