Trigg County man arrested on wanton endangerment charge

A Trigg County man was arrested after he allegedly caused a woman to wreck following a domestic disturbance at their home.

An arrest citation for 54-year old Gregory Fletcher of Cadiz for the Trigg County Sheriff’s Office says he got in his vehicle and chased the victim when she left the home, following her very closely at speeds of 70 mph toward Hopkinsville.

When the victim tried to pull over, Fletcher struck the passenger-side rear of her car and they both struck an embankment.

Fletcher reportedly told police he was trying to stop the victim, but then said he was only following her to see where she was going.

Fletcher was arrested and charged with first-degree wanton endangerment.
