Man who led 2022 Charlotte police chase arrested, accused of doing it again

CHARLOTTE — The man who led Charlotte-Mecklenburg Police Department officers on a high-speed, hours-long chase two years ago is back behind bars.

Tyler Harding was arrested on Friday. He’s accused of stealing another car, leading police on a chase along South Boulevard, and then jumping out and running into a stranger’s home.

Last year, Harding pleaded guilty to multiple charges stemming from a brazen chase through parts of Charlotte back in 2022. Chopper 9 Skyzoom was overhead as Harding weaved in and out of traffic during the two-hour police chase.
