Chenango County Sheriff’s officials say they tried to pull 19-year-old David Gavett in North Norwich but he sped down a side road.

After he was stopped, the teen was found to have several cans of alcohol in his possession and was not legally allowed to be driving.

Deputies say Gavett is charged with speeding, failure to yield to an emergency vehicle, unsafe turn, operating without insurance, unlawful possession of alcohol under the age of 21, obstruction of governmental administration and resisting arrest.

Gavett was sent to the Chenango County Jail on $1,000 bail.
