A traffic stop late Wednesday night in Council Bluffs resulted in a pursuit, foot chase and capture of the suspect after a stun gun was deployed. According to Bluffs Police, 28-year old Christopher Owens was arrested on an outstanding warrant for his arrest, in addition to charges of eluding, aggravated assault on a police officer, carrying weapons, unlawful possession of prescription medications, and reckless driving.

His arrest occurred after an officer tried to pull over a vehicle at around 11:10-p.m. The driver, identified as Owens, failed to stop. Owens’ vehicle eventually struck a light pole near 1st Avenue and South 10th Street, in Council Bluffs. After Owens took off on foot, the officer deployed his Taser, bringing Owens into submission.
