An
Ohio man is facing multiple charges after he allegedly assaulted a
police officer inside a Franklin, Ohio McDonald’s. 39-year-old
Chester Ricky Nichols Jr. was arraigned Tuesday in Franklin Municipal
Court and charged with assault on a safety officer, obstructing
official business, and possession of drug abuse instruments. Franklin
Police Department Officer Patrick Holland was dispatched at 9:33 p.m.
Friday to the McDonald’s restaurant to check on a report of a man
possibly overdosing. During Holland’s investigation, Nichols
attempted to flee. Police Chief Russell Whitman said Nichols ripped
the officer’s stun gun and holster from his vest and struck the
officer several times. Nichols also allegedly tried to grab the
officer’s handgun from his holster. The police report said three
syringes and an off-white, small rock were found in Nichols’
possession. Nichols was taken to a local hospital for facial injuries
and was treated and released before being taken to the Warren County
Jail. (https://on-ajc.com/2KEtsZb)

Dramatic
video posted online captured part of a police chase through a school
zone in a southern Alberta village that ended with three arrests and
the seizure of $20,000 worth of stolen maple syrup. The video, posted
to Facebook on Wednesday by Longview resident and Foothills Fire
Department member Sam Leak, shows a silver car traveling at high
speeds through the small town with four police vehicles in hot
pursuit. Constable Michael Hibbs confirmed the video shows part of a
chase that started northeast of Nanton just after 9:00 a.m. on
Wednesday after Mounties spotted a truck and cargo trailer reported
stolen out of Chestermere earlier that morning. Hibbs said spike
strips were used twice to immobilize the vehicle, taking out all four
of the car’s tires before it came to stop. Mounties recovered the
stolen truck and trailer, along with $20,000 worth of maple syrup.

A
man in Oregon who led police on a chase through the streets of Happy
Valley ended up with a broken leg after he jumped out of a rolling
car and was hit by his still-rolling vehicle. The Clackamas County
Sheriff's office said a Happy Valley patrol officer responded to a
call about a theft in progress Monday night, when he spotted
31-year-old suspect Isaiah John Gellatly inside a parked Honda lying
back in the fully-reclined driver's seat. Officers approached the
vehicle and shined a light into the Honda. That's when the driver sat
up, put the car in drive, and took off. Police began to chase after
Gellatly, radioing ahead for assistance. Gellatly’s tires were
punctured by spike strips and he jumped out of the still-moving
vehicle. While still running alongside the vehicle, he attempted to
cut in front of it, but didn't make it and ended up being pinned
under the Honda. Gellately was arrested on suspicion of attempting to
elude police, reckless driving, unlawful entry into a motor vehicle,
and theft. (https://ihr.fm/2Rgjf7S)
