Thomasville-- A chase through a Thomasville neighborhood led to the arrest of a suspected drug dealer.   Thomasville narcotics agents were looking for 26 year old Shedrick Turner on suspicion of dealing crack cocaine.  

Commander Kevin Lee of the Thomasville Narcotics/Vice Division said, "he jumped out of the vehicle left it there and fled on foot. He figured he couldn't get away from us in the vehicle so he thought he could run from us on foot but we boxed him in and found him underneath the house."  

Police found Turner under the steps of an abandoned house with several pieces of crack cocaine.
