Molino Man Leads Deputy On Short ‘Pursuit’ Home
August 23, 2017
A Molino man was jailed after fleeing from a deputy at the local Tom Thumb.
Michael Sanchez, age 22 of Effie Road, was charged with felony fleeing or eluding police, knowingly driving with a suspended license and marijuana possession. He also received traffic citations for an expired registration and attaching a validation sticker unlawfully.
An Escambia County deputy reported seeing Sanchez travel through the parking lot of the Tom Thumb at Highway 29 and Highway 97 with an expired tag. The deputy initiated a traffic stop in the parking lot with lights and siren, but Sanchez continued traveling, heading north on Highway 97 at speeds of 50 to 55 mph. He then turned on Effie Lane, traveling at 11 mph, until he stopped at his residence on Effie Lane. The deputy approached the vehicle with his gun drawn and removed Sanchez from the vehicle, according to an arrest report.
The deputy noted the smell of marijuana coming from the vehicle and reported finding marijuana with the vehicle, along with three capsules containing a white powder substance that will be lab tested.
Sanchez was also arrested on two outstanding warrants. He remained in the Escambia County Jail without bond.

My word, son… you need to square your world and understand that the law is that and you can’t very well get around it for long. You can straighten the road, but not without understanding a few things about life…. choose other and go the way of some of the folks featured here that are going away for more than a decade. It’s on you.
