GASTON, SOUTH CAROLINA — On your own property, retreat isn’t much of an option. When a manhunt in Gaston, South Carolina, spilled over onto one homeowner’s property, he had no choice but to put a decisive end to it. Authorities saying that if wasn’t for the homeowner’s apprehension of the escapee, it would have been much harder for police to catch him.

As local station WWYF 4 reports, Lexington County deputies initially tried to pull over Joseph Drafts and his passenger who were neither wearing their safety belts. That’s when events began to spiral out of control. The driver took off and a high speed chase ensued. At one point, Lexington County law enforcement deployed road spikes to stop the driver. The tires blew out and sent the truck careening off the road. While the driver made off onto the property, the passenger stayed put and waited for police to arrive.

News had spread that the manhunt was under way. The homeowner got word before the driver of the vehicle trespassed onto his property. He reports that he was very surprised by the whole thing.
