OMAHA, Neb. (AP) — A man has been arrested in connection with a vehicle pursuit that led authorities through parts of Iowa and Nebraska.
Omaha police say 29-year-old Robert Coffman was booked into Douglas County Corrections early Sunday. He faces charges that include methamphetamine possession and resisting arrest.
Court records do not list an attorney for Coffman.
Police say officers observed Coffman driving a car early Sunday in Omaha that was reported stolen. Coffman is accused of ignoring a traffic stop request from officers and driving into nearby Carter Lake, Iowa.
The car then entered Blair, Nebraska, before returning to Omaha. Authorities attempted to deploy tire deflation devices but the vehicle avoided them.
The car stopped eventually and Coffman and a male passenger were taken into custody. The passenger was cited and released.
