Fond du Lac, WI - The Fond du Lac County Sheriff’s Office has released dash cam video from a May 8 pursuit involving a wanted felon who had previously evaded law enforcement during two separate chases in recent weeks.
Officials said that in all three pursuits, the driver operated with extreme recklessness, repeatedly endangering the public and other motorists.
The chase ended after the suspect drove into a farm field, intentionally struck a squad car and attempted to flee back onto the roadway. Deputies with the Fond du Lac County Sheriff’s Office, who were the first backup unit to the initial traffic stop, were able to take decisive action and disable the suspect’s vehicle, bringing the pursuit to an end.
Antonie L. Wells was arrested as the suspected driver. He faces charges of fleeing and eluding an officer, first-degree recklessly endangering safety, resisting and obstructing an officer, possession of hallucinogenic and stimulant drugs and delivering illegal articles to an inmate.
The passenger, Crystal Olcikas, was charged with possession of drug paraphernalia, fleeing and eluding an officer, first-degree recklessly endangering safety, resisting or obstructing an officer and possession of THC.
