Police Chase In Stafford Leads To 34 Charges For Suspect: Police

STAFFORD COUNTY, VA — A Stafford County man faces dozens of chares after leading deputies on a chase on Friday night, the sheriff's office said.

Authorities did not report any injuries from the chase.

The Stafford County Sheriff's office identified the man as 27-year-old Micah Kynard.

Kynard is charged with domestic assault and battery, assault and battery on law enforcement, threats to burn, eluding, obstruction, DUI, refusal, drinking while driving, aggressive driving, reckless driving, hit and run, failing to obey a highway sign, traffic lane violation, improper stopping, no headlights, fail to drive on the right side of the roadway and disorderly conduct on hospital grounds, 15 counts of falsely summonsing 911, annoying phone calls and threatening language over the phone.

Around 7 p.m. on Friday, deputies responded to Standish Place for a dispute between family members. One of Kynard's family members told deputies that he threatened to burn down a home and intentionally hit their car on Garrisonville Drive.

"Deputies canvassed the area and discovered Kynard had just driven down Elm Street without headlights, signaling the beginning of a nightmare of a call," the sheriff's office wrote in a report. "Kynard called the Stafford County Emergency Communications Center several times and unleashed a tapestry of obscenity toward Communications Officers."

A deputy found Kynard driving on Winding Creek Road and tried to pull him over. The deputy said Kynard refused to stop, reached speeds of 75 mph, and eventually stopped on Walpole Street.

Kynard then left his vehicle and ran towards the woods, the sheriff's office said. Deputies took him into custody after he was stopped by a fence.
