On Thursday, deputies received another complaint and went to the area.

A second call came in and the 911 caller was able to give a direction in which the driver was going and the tag number of the truck.

The second complainant also recorded the driver of the truck stopping in the roadway and squealing tires.

The deputies in the area realized the vehicle was headed back into Temple so they requested assistance from the Temple Police Department.

Omarion Resheed Johnson, 18, was arrested by Temple Police during a traffic stop.
