A slow-speed police pursuit on rural Sherwood Road north of Willits ended this evening at 9:24 p.m.
The vehicle finally stopped on the 32000 block of Sherwood Road and officers detained the driver at gunpoint. A field sobriety test was also requested to the scene.
Initial information gathered about the driver indicates he is out of Washington along with other occupants of the vehicle. He reportedly has a nationwide extradition warrant for kidnapping and his Washington driver’s license has been suspended/revoked in the past.
Scanner traffic indicated the pursuit began at approximately 9:00 p.m. and during the pursuit, the driver reached 45 miles per hour, and crossed double yellow lines.

Sounds like OJ. I hope we don’t see replay of that exciting moment in media history
Well glad they got him! One jerk off the road and out of the public. Hopefully now he gets time. Last thing we need is some guy here that is running from kidnapping charges. Cause he will get brave and do it again.
