REDMOND, OR -- A Redmond man fled a traffic stop, leading police on a wild chase, Tuesday night. An officer attempted to pull over the V-W Jetta for several traffic violations at about 9:15 p.m. But, police say the man took off, driving through a field near 17th and West Antler Ave.

 

The driver ran from the scene after his car hit a sidewalk and became disabled. A K-9 unit helped track the suspect to a nearby apartment complex.

 

Police eventually found Ronnie Peters hiding inside an apartment. They say witnesses and nearby residents helped in the search effort.

 

Peters is accused of reckless driving and attempting to elude, along with charges stemming from an unrelated July investigation.
