Suspect Arrested After Foot Chase, Brief Manhunt
May 16, 2011
A domestic violence suspect was arrested Sunday afternoon after a brief foot chase and manhunt.
Clark Gable Burt of Century was booked into the Escambia County Jail on charges of domestic violence battery by strangulation and resisting an officer.
Burt, 38, fled from an Escambia County Sheriff’s Office deputy in the area of West Highway 4 near North Century Boulevard about 5:15 Sunday afternoon. The officer gave chase on foot, but lost the suspect. Deputies worked to create a perimeter around the area, requesting assistance from the Flomaton Police Department and a K-9 unit from Century Correctional Institution.
About 10 minutes later, Burt was spotted by another deputy in a wooded area near Century Woods and taken into custody without incident. He remained in the Escambia County Jail without bond early Monday morning.
