A Hopkinsville man was charged after he allegedly fled from police Thursday morning.
Hopkinsville Police say they attempted to stop 54-year-old Michael Evans on East 22nd Street and he fled before being stopped on Hazel Street near Hancock Street. During the stop police found a glass pipe, and Evans was found to have an active warrant.
