19-year-old Ali Sarieh was identified as a driver who was drag racing in the parking lot on Logistics Way in the early hours of August 4th. Upon arrival, officers noticed the vehicle doing “donuts” and activated their lights. When the occupants saw the police, one jumped into the vehicle.
After this, officers tried conducting a stop, but Sarieh sped away and turned a corner into a dead-end. While the police approached the vehicle, two occupants fled the scene. After being detained, Sarieh told officers that his friends told him to run and that he was looking for an exit. Sarieh was then taken into custody for evading arrest by motor vehicle and reckless driving.
Ali Sarieh of Barnes Bend Drive in Antioch, TN, was booked into the Metro Nashville Jail on August 4th, charged with reckless driving and evading arrest. A judicial commissioner set his bond at $2,500, and the Davidson County Sheriff’s Office gave him pre-trial release from their facility.
