CHEATHAM COUNTY, Tenn. (WKRN) — A man with warrants in multiple counties ran from law enforcement in Cheatham County last week. He was finally captured, but not before colliding with another motorist and being shocked several times by a stun gun.
It all unfolded the evening of Wednesday, Oct. 16. That’s when Tennessee Highway Patrol (THP) pulled over a vehicle reportedly going 75 mph in a 55 mph zone.
By the time the Cheatham County Sheriff’s Office arrived, THP troopers were investigating, trying to get the name of the male passenger who went into the gas station restroom with two children.
According to officials, the female driver was not being cooperative. Troopers suspected the man was Joshua R. Frost, who had an order of protection.

Several minutes into the traffic stop, the 26-year-old Nashville man exited the store. Though he had not told authorities his name, he indicated his ID was in the car and, if the woman got out of the driver’s seat, he could find it and give it to the trooper. The trooper allowed it.
