The Harrisonburg teenager who led authorities on a high-speed chase last week faces numerous charges, not just for this incident, but for several others that have happened in the last two years.

Online records showed that Marquez Sly has been charged with 20 counts since he was found guilty of passing a stopped school back in November of 2021.

In fact, he was out on bond when he led Harrisonburg Police and Rockingham County Sheriff’s deputies on a chase last Friday that topped speeds of over 90 miles per hour.

He faces seven charges from that incident, and he has a hearing on that case on March 9th in General District Court.

He also has a preliminary hearing set for August 15th on a misdemeanor charge of shoplifting.

He is currently in custody at the Rockingham-Harrisonburg Regional Jail.
