THE DAILY ASTORIAN // QUESTION OF THE WEEK
Man arrested
after fleeing police
By JACK HEFFERNAN
The Daily Astorian
A man who led police on
a car chase Tuesday after-
noon before hiding out over-
night in Hamlet was arrested
this morning.
Police in northern Tilla-
mook County attempted to
stop a car that was driving
southbound on U.S. High-
way 101. The driver refused
to stop, eventually turning
around and heading north,
Oregon State Police Lt.
Andrew Merila said.
Police tried at least twice
to stop the driver but ended
the pursuit for safety reasons.
The car reached speeds near
100 mph and nearly collided
with other cars, Merila said.
The driver then turned
onto U.S. Highway 26. Driv-
ing eastbound about 2 p.m.,
the driver lost control of the
car, flipped over and landed in
a ditch on the side of the road
near Hamlet.
“We heard the brakes and
everything, and we heard the
car flip over,” said Rosemary
Faust, who lives near the
scene of the accident. “They
don’t have cell service out
here, so when we see a car in a
ditch, we try to see what hap-
pened and help out. It wasn’t
until later that we found out
what was going on.”
After attempting to steal
a woman’s car, the man ran
away from the scene along
the highway. Police cars and
sirens followed about three
minutes later, Faust said.
Police from three different
counties then used a dog and
an airplane to try to find the
man in the woods.
“Ultimately, after many,
many hours, we called the
search off,” Clatsop County
Sheriff’s Sgt. Jason Hoover
said.
About 6:15 a.m. today,
Faust saw a man on her deck

description police had given.
On the rainy morning, he
appeared to have his hands
in his pockets and was shiv-

him what he wanted, and he
asked for a phone and jacket.
“I said, ‘No, go away,’ and
shut the door,” Faust said.
She then called police, who
arrested the man about an
hour later as he was attempt-
ing to break in to a neighbor’s

Police, who are still con-

not released the man’s name
and have yet to determine
charges.
Faust, who kept in touch
with neighbors through-
out the ordeal, said she was
relieved the man was caught.
“You know, the neighbors
out here are pretty friendly,”
Faust said. “So everybody
kept in touch and tried to fig-
