    Johnathon E. Brown, 32, of Hamilton, was booked into the Warren County Jail on Sunday, according to jail records.

    Court records indicate Brown is facing preliminary charges of felonious assault on a police officer, failure to comply with police order, and obstructing official business.

    According to jail records, Brown is also being held on a receiving stolen property charge.

    On August 16, Ohio State Highway Patrol and numerous southwest Ohio law enforcement agencies were asked to be on the lookout for a stolen Chevrolet Silverado involved in an incident in Butler Township, according to a previous News Center 7 report.

    A spokesperson with the Ohio State Highway Patrol identified the driver as Brown.

    Just before 2 p.m., the Franklin Police Department located the truck on I-75 SB near Franklin Lebanon Road and tried to stop it. Brown took off and a pursuit began, the spokesperson said.

    Troopers joined the pursuit near SR-63 and SR-4 in Monroe. The spokesperson said stop sticks were used, but Brown continued driving on the truck’s rims for several miles.

    The chase ended on W. Linden Avenue near N. Riverview Avenue in Miamisburg after Brown drove into the side of a CSX train, News Center 7 previously reported.

    The impact pushed the truck off the south side of the roadway, the spokesperson said.
