A Brazos County sheriff’s deputy on patrol last Saturday night saw a car in Bryan make a right turn using its left turn signal. That started a chase where the car was going 60 miles per hour before stopping on a side street between the freeway and Sadie Thomas Park. According to the arrest report, the driver jumped out while the car was still moving and started running. The deputy caught up and fired his Taser twice before taking the driver into custody. 38 year old Keith Calhoun of Bryan was arrested for evading arrest in a vehicle with prior convictions, evading on foot with prior convictions, and resisting arrest.
