A Hopkinsville man was charged with fleeing from law enforcement on a bike on East 9th Street Friday night.
Christian County Sheriff’s deputies say they stopped 46-year-old Kenneth Lancaster due to his electric bike not having lights on it, and he fled during the stop.
During the pursuit, he reportedly tossed a bag of meth then hit the back of the deputies vehicle with his bike.
Deputies say he was found to have synthetic marijuana along with a needle and other drug paraphernalia on him.
Lancaster was arrested and charged with possession of meth second offense, possession of synthetic drugs, tampering with physical evidence, second-degree fleeing or evading police, and failure to comply with bicycle safety regulations. He also had warrants for failure to appear and non-payment of court costs.
