While many are running to Buffalo Wild Wings for their all-you-can-eat wing deal, a 23-year-old Stafford man had different motives yesterday afternoon.

On May 1st at approximately 4:37 p.m. Deputy K.F. Bierfeldt responded to the Jessica Cheney Bridge for numerous traffic complaints against a Nissan. While traffic on Garrisonville Road is usually backed up at this time, it was exacerbated due to the driver asleep behind the wheel.

When Deputy Bierfeldt arrived, she discovered both the driver and passenger were located passed out by Fire and Rescue staff. The driver had glassy, bloodshot eyes and signs of intoxication. While attempting to converse with the driver, he would attempt to put the vehicle into drive. Luckily, the driver was unable to figure out the extremely difficult “push to start” feature.

Due to his behavior indicative of fleeing, Deputy Bierfeldt attempted to detain the driver. Instead, the driver decided to wing it and took off on foot. The pursuit, spicier than spicy garlic sauce, led deputies directly to Buffalo Wild Wings, located at 1050 Stafford Market Place. The driver ran directly towards the toilet. After stalling in the stall for a bit, deputies made entry and detained the driver. The driver was identified as Jayshon Bates.

The passenger decided it was best not to cluck around and find out by taking off on foot. She would however, provide a false identification and claim to be a 50-year-old woman. That lie didn’t work and she was eventually identified as Ajae Jackson, 24, of Stafford. Jackson was wanted out of both Fredericksburg and Spotsylvania. Out of an abundance of caution, she was transported to a nearby hospital where she decided to become very disorderly.

During an inventory search of the vehicle, deputies located enough THC products to open a new smoke shop. They also located a white powdery substance that, with the assistance of TruNarc, was identified as cocaine. Bates was charged with driving under the influence, eluding, obstruction of justice, possession of controlled substances, and driving with a suspended license. Jackson was charged with possession of controlled substances, public intoxication, providing a false identity to law enforcement, identity theft, unlawful name change, disorderly conduct on hospital grounds, as well as, served on her outstanding warrants. Both were held at Rappahannock Regional Jail without bond.
