Phenix City man leads Columbus police on chase

  COLUMBUS, Ga. (AP) - A Phenix City man led Columbus police
officers on a chase when they arrived to arrest him.
    Police say officers were sent at 7:20 a.m. Saturday to arrest
27-year-old Sylvester Davis, who was reportedly in a car on a
Columbus street. When officers ordered Davis to roll down his
window and stick out his hands, he started the engine and drove
away.

fled on foot. Officers searched the area and found Davis behind a
house.
    Police say Davis has outstanding warrants for armed robbery,
aggravated assault, robbery, possessing a firearm while committing
a crime, criminal trespass, stalking and misdemeanor theft.
    Now he also faces drug charges and other charges related to the
chase.
