Early Saturday morning Bryant Police Officers Tre’ Davis and Tanner Peck were attempting to make a traffic stop on a blue motorcycle in the area of Springhill and North Service Road. The unknown driver of the motorcycle refused to stop which led to a pursuit.

Part of his police car broke free and struck another vehicle on Springhill Road causing a secondary accident.
