A short time later, the same 911 caller called back stating the suspect was still travelling Southbound on Three Notch Road and struck a vehicle in the area of Loveville Road and Three Notch Road and fled the scene.
Multiple 911 callers followed the vehicle from Old Village Road in Mechanicsville, to St. Johns Road and then Hollywood Road in Hollywood, until Troopers from the Maryland State Police Leonardtown Barrack located the vehicle backing out of a driveway on Spalding Lane in Leonardtown.
Troopers attempted to place Hancock under arrest when he actively started to resist putting his hands behinds his back and attempted to pull away from the Troopers, Hancock was assisted to the ground where he refused to comply and actively resisted police.
