LOUISVILLE, Ky. (WHAS11) -- A former Mr. Basketball from Louisville is behind bars in Huntsville, Ala.

Dominic Tilford is facing charges after an alleged high speed chase.

Police said they believe Tilford and three others robbed tow Verizon stores before the pursuit began.

Tilford was a star player at Jeffersontown High School and went on to play college basketball at Cincinnati and South Alabama.

This is not Tilford's first run-in with the law -- he was charged with cocaine possession and tampering with physical evidence back in August 2008.
