(Sidney, Iowa) -Sheriff’s officials in Fremont County report a traffic stop Wednesday night resulted in a high-speed pursuit that entered into Nebraska and back into Iowa before ending in a crash and the arrest of a man from Missouri.

Authorities say that at around 10:40-pm, Wednesday,  a Deputy with the Fremont County K9 Unit attempted a traffic stop on a red Hummer H2 near the intersection of 195th Avenue and Highway 2. The vehicle had been called in earlier in the night for traveling southbound in the northbound lanes of Interstate 29. The vehicle accelerated, attempting to flee from law enforcement, resulting in a pursuit. The vehicle continued west to Syracuse, Nebraska.

At that time, the Nebraska State Patrol was following the vehicle as well. The Hummer continued west and suddenly crossed the median and headed back east toward Iowa. The Otoe County, Nebraska, Sheriff’s Office then took over the pursuit, which continued east on Highway 2 at speeds of up to 90 miles per hour. The vehicle continued toward Nebraska City, where Stop Sticks were successfully deployed by the Nebraska State Patrol, as well as the Nebraska City Police Department, but the Hummer continued eastbound and entered back into Iowa.

Stop Sticks were once again successfully deployed by a Fremont County Deputy, as well as an Iowa State Trooper. The vehicle continued east on Highway 2 where it crashed in a construction zone in the 2500 block of Highway 2. The driver ran on foot where he was later apprehended by a Mills County Deputy without incident.

The suspect was identified as Jorge L. Lara, of St. Joseph, Missouri. He was charged with Eluding while traveling 25+ miles per hour over the posted speed limit, a Class D Felony.

The Fremont County Sheriff’s Office thanks the Otoe County Sheriff’s Office, Nebraska City Police Department, the Nebraska State Patrol, the Nebraska State Patrol Airwing, the Iowa State Patrol and the Mills County Sheriff’s Office for their assistance.
