Christy Hubley reports. Police say they had three warrents out for his arrest, including one for escaping from a Danville mental hospital. But more recently, police were looking at Bailey in connection with a murder that happened last weekend. The body of Anthony Broadnax was discovered Sunday morning in a Walker Street backyard. Someone killed him with a single gunshot to the head.
Police believe the murderer then stole a car belonging to the victim's mother.
The pursuit ended when the suspect ran a red light at the intersection of Piney Forest Road and the Franklin Turnpike and crashed head on into another vehicle, injuring the driver. Police say the suspect got out of the stolen, now smashed car and took off running. This turn of events does not close the murder investigation. Instead, it opens a whole new probe into the chase, the accident, and the suicide. Christy Hubley, News 7, Danville.
