Stockbridge officers were patrolling North Henry Boulevard near Flippen Road when they spotted a 2011 gray Jeep Grand Cherokee with expired tags. Officers pulled the Jeep over.
But police said as the Jeep came to a stop, the driver, James Feltman, hopped out and started running towards the woods, where officers lost sight of him.
Authorities said Feltman has several felony warrants and a suspended license.

The sheriff’s office released a bodycam video showing K9 Zade tracking Feltman down.
Deputies found Feltman hiding in a sewage drain deep in the woods.
He was arrested and charged with obstruction, expired tag and driving while his license was suspended.
