JOHNSON CITY, Tenn. (WJHL) — A Middle Tennessee man is facing charges after authorities report he led deputies on a pursuit in Johnson City.

On Sunday around 6 p.m., deputies noticed a red sport bike speeding on West State of Franklin Road and University Parkway, as reported by the Washington County Sheriff’s Office.

Once EMS cleared him, Clark was taken to the Washington County Detention Center. His bond was set at $11,000, and according to the sheriff’s office, he was able to post it.

The sheriff’s office charged Clark with reckless endangerment, evading arrest, reckless driving, running a red light, and speeding.
