Man arrested on felony warrant after foot pursuit

Hopkinsville police arrested a man on a warrant for felony receiving stolen property following a foot pursuit early Monday morning.

Officers went to a Fourth Street home looking for 43-year old Ronald Bradford of Hopkinsville and found him walking and then crawling on the ground. An arrest citation says he jumped over a fence and ran, with K9 helping officers locate him hiding behind an air conditioning unit at 408 Brown Street.

He was charged with fleeing or evading police and served with a warrant alleging he sold a transporter platform hoist in December that had been stolen from a job site on Brown Street in November. The purchaser from Bradford tried to pawn the hoist and then learned it had been reported stolen.
