Omaha Police: Driver Had 4 Flat Tires, Deployed Airbag in Low-Speed Chase

omaha-policeOMAHA, Neb. (AP) — Authorities in Omaha say a man faces charges after he failed to stop driving a car with four flat tires and a deployed air bag.

Omaha police say 57-year-old Richard Curzon was spotted driving a vehicle over the center line Monday night. An officer says Curzon refused to stop the car and a low-speed pursuit ensued.

Police say Curzon was eventually arrested. A preliminary test showed his blood alcohol level was above the legal limit to drive.

Curzon faces several charges, including driving under the influence, flight to avoid arrest and willful reckless driving. Court records do not list an attorney.
