Authorities said kids were inside the suspect vehicle. At 4:36 p.m., officers were attempting to serve an arrest warrant on Trevorris Rashomique Woodard, 28, in relation to a narcotics case. When officers tried to pull over a car in which the suspect was a passenger, the driver of that vehicle reportedly sped away. During the pursuit, the suspect allegedly threw a handgun out of the front passenger window. The driver, who was later identified as 28-year-old Taneeka Channee Woodard, reportedly led police on a short chase before giving herself up at the intersection of Carter and Nelson Streets.

Tameeka Woodard was arrested for evading arrest. She also had an outstanding probation warrant. Authorities say they found two young children in the back seat of the car after the chase. The wanted felon was identified as Trevorris Woodard (pictured). He was arrested and charged with unlawful possession of a firearm, two counts of abandoning or endangering a child, and possession of a controlled substance. Both were taken Gregg County Jail without incident. Trevorris Woodard is currently behind bars on bonds totaling $450,000. Taneeka Woodard was released on $700 bond.

The arrest warrant stemmed from a call on January 22. Police said officers located the suspect in a vehicle and during the traffic stop, he ran from police. They were unable to locate him. However, officers say they located a large amount of narcotics and two stolen firearms inside the vehicle. Officers say they were able to identify one of the two suspects in the vehicle as Trevorris Woodard due to the fact the officer had just taken the suspect to jail days before on a separate narcotics arrest.
