A Rockingham County sheriff's deputy tried to stop a car near the Refuel truck stop on US 220 on November 7 and ended up in a pursuit that topped 90 miles an hour before another deputy ended it with a PIT maneuver on Briarfield Court, the sheriff's office said.
Deputy B. Rivera found a 19-month-old child inside the vehicle. The child was not injured and was released to family members at the scene. Deputies also seized what the sheriff's office described as a trafficking amount of methamphetamine from the car.
William Tyrone Moore, 44, was charged by the sheriff's office with felony trafficking in methamphetamine, felony possession of methamphetamine and maintaining a vehicle for drug activity. The North Carolina State Highway Patrol filed additional charges including felony flee to elude arrest. Moore is presumed innocent unless proven guilty in court. The child is not being identified.
