A Mascot father and son have been charged in connection with
a hit and run involving an undercover KCSO deputy Thursday night. The incident occurred shortly after 9 p.m. at
Rutledge Pike at Loves Creek. Forty-nine
year old Ronald Dean Rosenbaum was driving and his son 27 year old Ronald
Samuel was a passenger when their car rammed into the officer’s vehicle and
they fled. Ronald Samuel was taken into
custody when he was found intoxicated and unsteady on his feet walking on Loves Creek Road. His father fled again when officers tried to
stop him on Chilhowee Drive
near the Interstate. He was forced to
stop at Silvia Drive
where an officer took him into custody.
Robert Dean has been charged with vehicular assault, driving
under the influence, leaving the scene of an accident, evading arrest, and
driving while privilege suspended. His
son was charged with public intoxication.
Both men have extensive criminal records ranging from public
intoxication, theft, burglary, evading arrest, driving while privilege
suspended, failures to appear, reckless driving, assault, larceny, and driving
under the influence.
The officer received minor injuries and was treated and
released from the University of Tennessee Medical Center. His vehicle was totaled.
