At 4:44 p.m. Aug. 9, sheriff’s deputies were called to a residence in the N7300 block of Dentons Run after Williams got into an argument with his parents because they wouldn’t allow him to buy a video game with his credit card. Williams began to punch doors and windows inside the home, so his mother locked herself in a room and called police.

When deputies arrived, Williams had already left and was driving eastbound on Silver Spring Road. The deputy came up behind Williams with his light and siren on, and even though Williams initially pulled over, he began to drive away as the squad pulled behind him.
