WILLIAMSBURG, Ky. (FOX 56) — A man is charged with attempted murder after an alleged fight Sunday in Williamsburg led to a dangerous chase.

According to an arrest citation, an officer with Williamsburg Police Department received a call about two men fighting at Grumpy’s BP saying one pulled a gun on the other. When an officer arrived, they found 21-year-old Torey D. Loftin, of Montgomery, Alabama, inside a vehicle.

Police reported when they approached Loftin, he said, “It wasn’t like that,” and sped away, almost hitting an officer who was in front of the vehicle. While leaving the parking lot, he struck a blue SUV with two adults and three juveniles inside.

The citation said Loftin then drove onto northbound I-75 where he threw a firearm out the window that was later recovered by authorities. Once in custody, Loftin said he stole the gun and had smoked marijuana earlier that day.

Police reported finding marijuana and THC gummy packs in the vehicle.
