With assistance from Bowling Green Police K-9 and the Kentucky State Police Interdiction Team, the Bowling Green-Warren County Drug Task Force has arrested a fugitive after a collision.
On March 3 at 3:50 p.m., 26-year-old Treshawn Martez Hutchins of Bowling Green was seen entering a white Cadillac Escalade and driving from his apartment toward Enterprise Court.
A detective with state police attempted to block his exit with a vehicle equipped with flashing blue lights. According to the release, Martez swerved at the detective and drove around him and a second detective.
After driving through landscaping, he drove a short distance west on Enterprise Court. He failed to stop at the Russellville Road intersection and struck a passenger car and a pickup truck.
The car Martez was driving then became disabled. Martez then fled on foot, abandoning his sister, 29-year-old Alexus Gatewood and her five-year-old child inside.
He ran from the vehicle until he was confronted by two Drug Task Force detectives and held a gunpoint. He was taken into custody without further resistance.
Hutchins, the passenger, and her five-year-old daughter were treated and released at the Medical Center at Bowling Green for minor injuries following the collision.

Law enforcement found a trafficking amount of powder fentanyl, ammunition and a handgun, all of which were seized from the residence. Another handgun was seized from the Cadillac at the collision scene along with $830 in cash seized from the accused person. Drug Task Force Detectives will be presenting additional charges to the Warren County Grand Jury in the future.
