Deputies gave chase and took him into custody, but one of the deputies was hurt during the escapades in the woods, Bass said. That's why Millis was charged with simple assault on a police officer.
Bass also said the charges of careless driving and reckless driving differ in that careless would be inadvertently swerving into a lane or failing to stop at a stop sign, while reckless driving would be deliberately putting others in harm's way by the way you were driving.
Millis also faces a probation violation for his offenses. He was out on charges of possession of a controlled substance, out-of-state simple burglary and property damage and robbery/larceny convictions. He is on hold for the state Department of Corrections.
