Indy driver arrested after pursuit through Bartholomew County

An Indianapolis woman is under arrest after a chase Monday on Interstate 65 through Bartholomew County.

Bartholomew County deputies received a report of a possibly impaired driver on the interstate near Walesboro at about 2:51 p.m. Monday afternoon. A deputy located the vehicle, but rather than pull over, the driver took off, eventually stopping near State Road 252 just north of the Bartholomew/Shelby county line.

The driver, Nicole Davenport of Indianapolis, was taken to Columbus Regional Hospital to be checked out before being arrested on preliminary charges of operating a vehicle while intoxicated, resisting law enforcement and possession of drug paraphernalia.
