On June 16, 2025, the Randolph County Sheriff’s Office initiated a traffic stop on Finch Farm Rd., Trinity. The driver did not comply, continued at a high speed, and a pursuit ensued. While attempting to turn onto I-85 southbound, the driver lost control of the vehicle because of wet road conditions, resulting in a traffic accident. He was identified as Christopher Roger Todd. During a subsequent search, paraphernalia was located, and he was taken into custody. EMS arrived and concluded that Todd needed to be transported to an area hospital for further evaluation.
Charges were sought against Todd for felony flee/elude arrest with a motor vehicle and misdemeanor possession of drug paraphernalia, and the magistrate found probable cause to issue a warrant. While at the magistrate’s office, another deputy reported locating a firearm during the search and seizure of the vehicle. Todd, being a convicted felon, the magistrate also issued a warrant for the charge of felony possession of a firearm by a felon.
Upon medical discharge, he was transported to the Randolph County Detention Center, where he was served his warrants. He was issued a $8,000 total secured bond. A first appearance was set for June 20, 2025, in Randolph County District Court.
