Pursuit
A high-speed chase began when a Haywood County deputy spotted Dalton Grey Suttles, 20, driving on N.C. 209. The other, a 1999 Chevrolet Tahoe, had a fictitious tag. Suttles fled westbound on U.S. 23/74 towards Jackson County. Officers from the Waynesville Police Department joined in the chase and the N.C. Highway Patrol and Jackson County Sheriff's Office were notified. Suttles allegedly made a left hand turn and traveled westbound in the eastbound lane. Police reportedly did not pursue Suttles while he was driving the wrong way. Suttles hit a 2005 Nissan Titan pickup truck, injuring two and killing Zenen F. Lopez-Guzman.
