JEFFERSON COUNTY, Ala. (TRIBUNE) – A Birmingham resident was taken into custody last Wednesday following a vehicle chase in Pinson, as reported by the Jefferson County Sheriff’s Office.

Javon Everson, 30, faces multiple charges, including drug trafficking, fleeing from law enforcement, illegal possession of a machine gun conversion device, possession of a controlled substance, possession of drug paraphernalia, and tampering with evidence.

He is in the custody of the Jefferson County Jail with a total bond of $1,567,000.

The JCSO stated that narcotics officers, along with the Sheriff’s Neighborhood Enforcement Team, tried to pull over Everson near Goodwin Road and Flagstone Street in the Pinson vicinity.

He reportedly refused to stop and led detectives and SNET on a brief pursuit that ended when he drove his vehicle into a ravine near the intersection of Wood Drive and Sweeney Hollow Road.

Everson then reportedly fled on foot before being quickly apprehended.

During a search, detectives reportedly seized 13.8 grams of fentanyl, 3 grams of crack cocaine, an Anderson Manufacturing AR-15 .300 Blackout with auto sear, an American Tactical AR-15 .556 cal., two Glock Model 19 9mm, and a Palmetto State 9mm handgun.

They also seized digital scales, packaging material, ammunition, weapon magazines, and $3,404.

“This was a successful operation run by our team in which dangerous drugs and weapons were taken off the streets of Jefferson County,” Sheriff Mark Pettway stated. “Keeping the citizens of Jefferson County safe is my number one priority.”
