SPRING HILL, Tenn. (WKRN) — Officers across multiple agencies flushed an Alabama man out of the woods near a Spring Hill neighborhood.
It all began when a Williamson County deputy pulled over a car with an Alabama license plate on Interstate 65 Saturday for following too closely. Hours later, it became a full-scale manhunt complete with a K9 and a helicopter.

Dash camera and body camera footage helped piece the case together. When the Williamson County deputy approached the vehicle, he reportedly smelled marijuana. But before the deputy could even get to the window, the driver took off.
The deputy with the Williamson County Sheriff’s Office (WCSO) didn’t chase the man, who was later identified as 34-year-old Tyler Sales of Decatur, Alabama. However, the same car was quickly spotted in a neighborhood off Duplex Road by the Spring Hill Police Department (SHPD).
That’s where officers said Sales jumped out of his moving car and ran.
