After a short struggle with officers, he was taken into custody, says Lt. Matt Harris, spokesman for the Columbus police.

A front-seat passenger, 19-year-old Ethen A. Robertson was also wanted on a warrant and as he was being arrested, officers discovered that he had items in his pockets believed stolen from a local store, as well as a phone and tablet that had also been reported stolen by their owner.

In addition to the outstanding warrants, Spencer is facing a charge of resisting law enforcement, while Robertson is also facing charges of possession of stolen property.
