High Speed Chase leads to arrest

Raul Sendejas

On July 24, 2025, deputies with the Coffee County Sheriff’s Office attempted to conduct a traffic stop on a Chevrolet Camaro traveling at a high rate of speed on Highway 32 West near Warren Carter Road.

The driver, later identified as Raul Sendejas, refused to stop and led deputies on a pursuit reaching speeds of up to 90 miles per hour. During the chase, Sendejas disregarded multiple stop signs, drove recklessly through county roads, and ultimately lost control after driving off an embankment near 250 Vine Road.

Sendejas resisted arrest but was taken into custody by deputies. He was transported to the Coffee County Pre-Trial Detention Center and placed on a forty-eight-hour hold pending warrants.
