Wanted suspect runs into Fond du Lac County deputies after he ran into a cornfield
By: -----
Fond du Lac County, WI - The Fond du Lac County Sheriff’s Office released dashcam and bodycam footage Friday of a high-speed chase and foot pursuit earlier this week.
They say a man wanted on an arrest warrant, with two open felony court cases, led police on a chase Monday afternoon on highways 175 and 151 and several county roads.
After his tires were deflated by stop sticks offers laid in the road, the driver hit the brakes and ran across the median while his car rolled away.
The video picks up a deputy’s bodycam as the man leads them into a cornfield, followed by drone footage of his arrest more than 5 hours later.
The sheriff’s office is seeking multiple felony charges against the driver, including fleeing and eluding, recklessly endangering safety, and bail jumping. Online court records show he’s only been cited for traffic violations, including running a stop sign and an unsafe lane deviation.
He has two felony cases currently in the courts for maintaining a drug trafficking place, carrying a concealed weapon, possession of a firearm by a felon, and other charges.
