The Vanderburgh County Sheriff’s Office confirms that deputies assisted the Evansville Police Department Saturday night following a high-speed vehicle pursuit that began on U.S. 41 and ended in a crash near South Road 57.
The driver, later identified by EPD as Hezekiah Fils-Aime, a jail officer with the Vanderburgh County Sheriff’s Office, was taken into custody.
Immediately after being notified of the arrest, the Vanderburgh County Sheriff’s Office placed the employee on administrative leave pending further review.
His employment status will be formally evaluated during an internal administrative meeting scheduled for this morning.
