TWO DRIVERS CHARGED WITH DRAG RACING ON TENNESSEE INTERSTATE

The Tennessee Highway Patrol says two people are facing charges for impaired driving and drag racing last night.

The incident report states a trooper was on patrol, traveling east on Interstate 24, when a black two-door Infiniti and a silver BMW SUV passed him at speeds well over 100 miles an hour.

The trooper attempted to stop both vehicles, but they continued down the interstate.

Both vehicles eventually pulled to the right shoulder near Exit 181.

The drivers, 20-year-old Rolando Martinez and 19-year-old Lucas Turner, were arrested for drag racing and reckless driving.
