BEND, OR -- A Bend Police officer attempted to pull over Seth Morningsun Sunday night for a traffic violation near NE Fourth and Greenwood. Officers say Morningsun refused to pull over and drove south on NE Third Street, just before 9:20 p.m. He stopped near Third and Brosterhous but drove off as the officer tried to approach the vehicle.
Eventually, the 35-year-old Bend man drove into the Fred Meyer parking lot where a number of officers approached his vehicle. They say he initially failed to comply with commands, but was finally taken into custody a short time later without incident.
Morningsun is charged with Attempting to Elude Police and Driving Under the Influence of Intoxicants.
