1/9/14 - A local man who led police on a chase through Lyon Township has been sentenced to jail time. 32-year-old Tobias Robert Kenyon of Brighton pleaded guilty to charges of fleeing and eluding police in Oakland County Circuit Court last month. He was sentenced yesterday to one year in Oakland County Jail. He was also sentenced to 58 days already served for violating his parole. Deputies with the Oakland County Sheriffâs Office Lyon Township substation attempted to stop a suspicious vehicle driven by Kenyon in the early morning hours of August 12th, but he instead fled to a mobile home park near Kensington Road. Following a brief foot chase and an unsuccessful K-9 track, police say Kenyonâs passenger identified him as the driver and deputies located him at a home near where the car was abandoned. One deputy went to the main door and knocked while a second deputy went to a rear side door in case he attempted to flee again, which he did while carrying a can of beer. (TD)
