Following reports of suspicious activity, deputies take a man into custody.
Tuesday, deputies with the Cannon County Sheriff’s Office were patrolling the 4000 block of Locke Creek Rd in reference of a suspicious vehicle. While in the area, deputies observed a male that came from the abandoned property to a vehicle parked in the roadway. The deputy attempted a traffic stop on the vehicle. The driver of the vehicle then attempted to evade law enforcement. Deputies followed the car down Locke Creek onto Murfreesboro Road. The vehicle entered into Rutherford County and back onto Highway 70 towards Woodbury. Deputies followed the car into Woodbury and came to a stop on Water St where the subject was taken into custody. Joseph Tyler Green has a very lengthy history of criminal activities with Cannon, Rutherford, Warren, and other counties. He was transported and booked in at Cannon County Jail on felony charges. Bond is to be set. We would like to thank Woodbury PD in their assistance.
