A South Carolina man was arrested in Gibson County after resisting police.

Around 2:00 am this morning, Indiana State Troopers noticed a vehicle swerving in and out of lanes on US41.

When officers tried to stop the vehicle, the driver, later identified as 41-year-old Eric Briggs of Enoree, South Carolina, continued on.

Officers eventually had deployed stop sticks, which did put an end to the pursuit.

Briggs struggled with officers for a bit but he was taken to Gibson County Jail where he was charged with a Level 6 Felony Count of Resisting Law Enforcement with a Vehicle, a Class A Misdemeanor Count of Resisting Law Enforcement, as well as an Outstanding Failure to Appear to Warrant out of Vanderburgh County.
