A Tulsa man with a history of convictions in Louisiana was arrested following a single-vehicle crash after leading police on a chase through midtown Tuesday afternoon.
Freddie Allen Hayes, 32, taken to St. John Medical Center following the crash with injuries that were not believed to be life threatening, police said. Hayes will be booked into jail when he’s released from the hospital.
Tulsa Police Officer Jillian Roberson said officers were attempting to arrest Hayes in the 1400 block of East Skelly Drive on a number of outstanding warrants just before noon when he sped away.
Hayes crashed into a tree near 41st Street and Troost Avenue, Roberson said.
He was wanted on warrants for leaving the scene of a collision involving injury, driving with a suspended or revoked license, unlawful possession of a controlled drug and carrying a concealed weapon.
Court records show that Hayes was convicted June 25, 2001, in Acadia Parish, La., on charges of possession of crack cocaine, aggravated battery, criminal damage to property and second-degree battery. He was sentenced to a term of three years, according to court documents.
Hayes was at one time thought by police to have been connected in some way to the Jan. 7 killings of four women at the Fairmont Terrace apartment, but he was later cleared.
