A man who got into an argument at the Mavis Tire Store on Jefferson Road in Henrietta responded by jumping into a nearby FedEx truck and driving off with it, complete with its load of packages.
The Monroe County Sheriff’s Office says 35-year-old Taheed Moffett of Rochester was quickly spotted on I-390, but refused to pull over. Deputies terminated their pursuit for the time, but State Troopers located the truck and tried to stop it again.
Asain, Moffett refused to stop and troopers pursued him from 390 to I-490 in Gates, then into Chili. The truck was stopped with spike strips near the Riga Town Line and Moffett was taken into custody.
The sheriff’s office says he’ll be charged with grand larceny, criminal possession of a controlled substance, driving without a license, reckless driving and at least ten traffic violations.
Nobody was hurt during either pursuit.
