At around 1:00 AM November 21st, Willard PD observed a suspect sliding through an intersection after attempting to stop. This led to a pursuit that ended in a crash.
The suspect received a medical assessment following the crash and was found to be uninjured. The pursuing officer was not involved in the crash and did not sustain any injuries.
Due to information suggesting the suspect was armed, our officers proceeded with caution after the crash to ensure everyone’s safety before transporting the individual for further assessment. The pursuit ultimately concluded with the suspect’s arrest.
We’re grateful for the professionalism of our officers and the safe resolution of this incident.
The suspect is presumed innocent unless found guilty in a court of law.
