POLICE REPORT
A man who fled from police—first in a vehicle that went into a field by the RHS baseball diamond and later on foot—is still being sought.
Lt. Stephen Goodrich said at 3:38 p.m. last Wednesday (Dec. 12) police attempted to pull over the driver for speeding in a school zone when he sped away.
Goodrich said the chase went through streets in the neighborhood of the high school and at one point the driver went into a field between RHS and the baseball complex.
“The vehicle stopped behind Sonic and the driver fled on foot,” Goodrich said.
“The passenger remained in the vehicle and was cooperative,” he said.
Goodrich said a small amount of meth and marijuana were found.

He remains in custody on $68,000 bond.
