Convicted Felon Arrested After Multi-County Police Chase in Nashville AreaSource: Metro Nashville Police Department

A multi-county car chase led by a convicted felon ended with his arrest on Friday, according to authorities. 42-year-old Adolfo Leon Isaza, with a history of criminal activities, was apprehended after a dramatic police pursuit involving the Metro Nashville Police Department, Rutherford County Sheriff’s Office, and the Mt. Juliet Police Department. The metro area was on high alert as the chase unfolded across county lines.

The pursuit began when Isaza, driving a stolen green Toyota Tacoma, allegedly failed to stop during a routine traffic stop initiated by MNPD officers on Nolensville Pike, as WSMV reported. The chase, aided by the MNPD aviation unit, continued through Rutherford County near Murfreesboro and back into the Hermitage precinct before Isaza aborted the truck in Mt. Juliet, where his attempt to flee on foot came to an end.

Isaza, notorious for his past transgressions, was wanted on several severe charges prior to his latest escapade. According to WKRN, the charges levied against him included aggravated stalking, three counts of related aggravated assault, and four counts of order of protection violations. These offenses paint a troubling portrait of a man seemingly resistant to the restraints of law and order.

Precipitating his most recent arrest, Isaza has been slapped with additional charges, including motor vehicle theft and felony evading arrest, as Yahoo News confirmed. Isaza now faces a conglomeration of allegations that, if proven, could solidify his notoriety in the annals of local criminal history.

Currently, Isaza is being held on a $129,500 bond. The coordination among the law enforcement agencies underscored the seriousness with which they pursue such vehicular offenses, and the consequences that await those who lead police on high-speed chases through the streets and communities they are sworn to protect.
