Drivers charged with drag racing after Tennessee trooper clocked speeds over 100 mph
HAMILTON COUNTY, Tenn. — 2 young adults are facing charges for impaired driving and drag racing after a Tennessee State Trooper clocked them going more than 100 mph down I-24 Monday night, an affidavit says.
The affidavit says a THP trooper was on patrol traveling east on I-24 when a black two-door Infiniti and a silver BMW SUV passed him “at well over 100 MPH.”
The trooper attempted to stop both vehicles, but they continued down the roadway.
The affidavit says both vehicles eventually pulled to the right shoulder near Exit 181.
The trooper arrested both drivers, identified as 20-year-old Rolando Martinez and 19-year-old Lucas Turner, for drag racing and reckless driving.
While inventorying the silver BMW, the affidavit says a case of beer was found in the back seat, along with beers strewn throughout the vehicle.
The arrest report says the trooper smelled alcohol coming from both drivers.
Turner consented to standardized field sobriety tests and a blood test. The report says he was above the legal limit of .02.

Martinez completed half of the HGN test and refused further sobriety testing, but consented to a blood test. The trooper also believed he was above the legal limit.

A Tennessee fugitive who was accused of rape and fled to Alaska was arrested in Ketchikan on Saturday, U.S. Marshals say.
Michael Shane Vaughan, 46, was arrested with the help of the Ketchikan Police Department early Saturday, Deputy U.S. Marshal Christian Marrero said in an emailed statement.
Vaughan was wanted by the Metropolitan Nashville Police Department on two counts of rape, according to the U.S. Marshals Service. He was last seen in Nashville in September of last year after the incident, U.S. Marshals said.
On Friday, the U.S. Marshals Middle Tennessee Fugitive Task Force asked for the public’s help in locating Vaughan, saying he may be in Alaska because he previously told relatives he would flee to the state, where he has ties and previously live.
It’s unclear how police learned Vaughan was in Ketchikan or what he was doing in Southeast Alaska.
Marrero didn’t immediately respond to questions on Saturday morning about the arrest and what led to it.
Vaughan was jailed at the Ketchikan Correctional Center as of Saturday morning, according to an online jail roster.
U.S. Marshals said he would remain in custody until extradited to Tennessee.
