WENTWORTH, N.C. (Romero Report) — A Greensboro man is behind bars after a high-speed vehicle pursuit that ended in a crash on May 9.

The incident unfolded around 7 p.m. when a Rockingham County Deputy spotted a Red Nissan 370Z traveling recklessly at a high rate of speed near the Jacobs Creek Volunteer Fire Department on NC 704.
