Gastonia police initiated the low-speed pursuit, which came to an end when police rammed and spun Tran's car sideways.
"You see it on TV, but to be close up with it, it’s unreal,” Jason Bradley said.
The Highway Patrol is taking over the investigation.
He was charged with numerous traffic violations, including driving while license revoked, fleeing and eluding arrest, hit and run, reckless driving, assault with a deadly weapon on a government official and failure to comply and resisting arrest.
Police said the warrant out of York County was for damaging a woman's car in November.
