A man who reportedly pulled a knife on employees at a Glasgow restaurant was arrested Saturday.
The Glasgow Police Department said officers responded to Sidelines, where it was reported that a man pulled a knife on employees and threatened them before leaving the restaurant in a burgundy vehicle traveling north on Smith Road.
Officers found the vehicle on Smith Road and attempted to stop it, but the driver continued traveling until stopping at a residence on Lexington Drive.
Wendell Craig Locklear, 55, of Glasgow, was arrested on charges of first-degree wanton endangerment, driving on a license suspended for DUI (second offense), operating a motor vehicle while under the influence (second offense) and first-degree fleeing or evading police.

Arrest — A Bowling Green man was arrested on suspicion of drunken driving after a crash Saturday afternoon.
The Warren County Sheriff’s Office said deputies responded to a crash in the 8600 block of Morgantown Road, where they determined that a 1999 Dodge Ram pickup truck driven by Perry Pitcock, 56, of Bowling Green, went into a ditch and overturned.
Pitcock, who was wearing a seat belt at the time, was transported to The Medical Center to be treated for injuries not considered life-threatening.
Speed and alcohol were believed to be factors in the collision. Pitcock was arrested and charged with operating a motor vehicle while under the influence.
