Speeder Had Reason To Run
7 August 2021 News
A traffic stop for speeding Friday afternoon netted a Fond du Lac County Sheriff’s deputy a drug dealer from Illinois. The deputy pulled the 29-year-old man over on County Highway D near Brown Road in the Town of Fond du Lac. The deputy smelled the odor of drugs coming from the man who rather than exit his vehicle took off at a high rate of speed. After going through a red traffic signal at the intersection of County Highway D and Rolling Meadow Drive the suspect lost control of his vehicle and went into a ditch. The man had a half a pound of suspected cocaine and a pound of suspected ecstasy in the vehicle. He’s facing eluding, OWI first, and drug possession and trafficking charges. The pursuit was approximately three-quarters of a mile long.
