The Pottawattamie County Sheriff’s Office has released its latest report on arrests. A traffic stop Tuesday night in Pott. County escalated into a pursuit, and the eventual arrest of 38-year old Roger Anthony Otts, of Council Bluffs. The incident began at around 10:20-p.m., when Deputy Michael Hansen tried to stop a Honda Accord, because a check of the license plate showed the registered owner to be Driving While Suspended. Instead of pulling over, Otts took off, leading the Deputy on a 85-mph chase that ended with the Honda losing control on a curve and going into a ditch. Otts jumped out the passenger window of the car and refused the Deputy’s order to lay on the ground. Deputy Hansen deployed his Taser as Otts was trying to run up a hill, but the Taser missed Otts. Hansen engaged in a foot pursuit, and tackled Otts about 50-yards from the accident scene, and placed him under arrest. Otts was taken into custody on three Probation Violation warrants associated with Conspiracy to Commit a Forcible Felony, Theft in the 1st and Theft in the 3rd Degrees. Otts faces additional charges of Eluding, and Driving While Under Suspension. He was booked into the Pott. County Jail
