Georgia State Patrol troopers said they were notified that 21-year-old Anthony Rumbel was traveling southbound on I-75 in a black Toyota Tundra.

State patrol officials said a trooper located the vehicle near Chastain Road after observing it traveling at a high rate of speed and weaving through traffic. When the trooper attempted a traffic stop, authorities said Rumbel failed to stop, resulting in a chase.
