Police: Greasy naked man led officials on car chase through North Austin
Police arrested a man who led them on a car chase through parts of Williamson County while high on methamphetamines, naked and covered in a “greasy substance,” according to arrest records.
Scott MacFarland, 41, was in the Williamson County Jail Monday and facing felony charges for possession of methamphetamines, driving while intoxicated and evading arrest, according to jail records.
According to arrest records, police received two calls on Dec. 5 about a man sitting in a Jeep in the nude outside of the Value Place Hotel near the intersection of U.S. 183 and Texas 45. The second caller told police the man was either intoxicated or high on drugs and that he had been violent in the past, arrest records said.
When police arrived around 7 p.m., they were told MacFarland had left in the Jeep and headed onto Hymeadow Drive, arrest records said. When one officer went after MacFarland, he saw the Jeep coming back toward the hotel, put his lights on and began to follow the Jeep, which did not stop and headed north on the U.S. 183 frontage road, according to arrest records.
