A Pleasantville teen who made national headlines six years ago for being awarded a "crybaby award" by his middle school basketball coach is accused of leading police on a chase - and now faces assault, gun and drug charges.




Quote from the article:

Police say an officer was injured while trying to arrest Terrence Philo Jr., 19. The chase started at about 11:30 p.m. Monday at the intersection of South Franklin Boulevard and Tunis Avenue, according to Capt. Rocky Melendez. Melendez said a person driving a gold Pontiac Grand-Am, later identified as Philo, attempted to rob someone using a gun. A police officer saw that incident, causing Philo to drive off, Melendez said. The chase weaved through the surrounding roads, lasting for about five minutes, until Philo crashed his car into a parked vehicle.
