MADISONVILLE-A man who led Madisonville Police on a wild chase in 2010 pleaded guilty to various charges last week after nearly two years in jail.

Steve Brian Bright, 44, whose last recorded address was in Maryville, pleaded guilty to charges of possession of a weapon by a convicted felon, theft of property $1,000-$10,000, evading arrest causing risk of death, reckless driving, failure to use turn signal, failure to obey traffic control devices, leaving the scene of an accident with injury, theft of property $100-$500 and possession of burglary tools.

Bright did have charges of aggravated assault and four counts of fraudulent use of a credit card dismissed.

It was on Oct. 29, 2010 that Madisonville Patrolman Adam Russell was patrolling on New Highway 68 just after 10 p.m. when he noticed a car matching a description of that had been stolen out of Maryville.
