Penn Hills man wanted on several warrants arrested after chase

ALLEGHENY COUNTY, Pa. — A man with multiple warrants was arrested Saturday after a chase in several Allegheny County communities.

The Allegheny County Sheriff’s Office says detectives were searching in Knoxville for Curtis Norvell Davis Jr., 24, of Penn Hills, on Saturday morning.

Davis has been a fugitive since December — when a judge issued a bench warrant for a probation violation connected to a guilty plea on a drug charge. He also had active arrest warrants in Penn Hills, Wilkins Township and Pittsburgh.

While searching, a deputy saw Davis driving on Route 51 and tried to stop the car, but a pursuit ensued. The sheriff’s office says the pursuit went up West Liberty Avenue and eventually ended along Castle Shannon Boulevard in Mt. Lebanon when Davis struck an occupied pickup truck.
