A traffic stop early this (Sunday) morning in Montgomery County resulted in a pursuit that ended in a rollover accident and arrest of an Adams County man. The Montgomery County Sheriff’s Office says just after 2-a.m., a deputy attempted to stop a vehicle driven by 35-year old Jason Adam Oathoudt, of Nodaway.
Oathoudt ignored the deputy, and continued driving eastbound on 265th Street from Villisca, heading towards Nodaway. The vehicle then left the road at 265th & Birch Avenue, causing a property damage, rollover accident. Oathoudt was checked by Villisca Rescue personnel, but refused medical treatment.
He was taken into custody on charges of OWI/1st offense, Felony Eluding, and Speeding 90-miles per hour in a 55-zone. Oathoudt was transported to the Montgomery County Jail and held on $5,000 bond.
The Montgomery County Sheriff’s Office was assisted by Villisca Fire and Rescue, deputies with the Adams County Sheriff’s Office3, and the Red Oak Police Department’s K-9 Unit.
