They say an officer used a tactical vehicle intervention maneuver, or TVI, to bring the chase to a stop.
Pruett was arrested for speeding, drug possession, and other felony warrants from other counties in the state.
Police say they went on a similar chase last week and the vehicle involved matches the same description as Pruett's car. That pursuit is still under investigation. It's unknown if it was the same driver.
Pruett was also arrested in 2022 for malicious injury or destruction of property.
