In an update to our story Wednesday morning, authorities in Pottawattamie County have released additional details about the chase that began early that same morning, and made its way into Cass County and back into Pott. County.  Lt. Rob Ambrose, with the Pott. County Sheriff’s Dept. told KJAN news the incident began at around 2:23-a.m., with a traffic stop for speeding at the City Limits of Hancock.

Ambrose said a deputy tried to pull over a Ford Taurus driven by 38-year old Daniel Campbell, of Walnut, when the car sped-off and eventually made its way into Cass County on Boston Road. Deputies deployed stop sticks at 560th and Boston Road, but the device wasn’t immediately effective in deflating the vehicles’ tires. The chase ended between Marne and Walnut, near 530th and Westgate Road at around 2:45-a.m.

Campbell was taken into custody and is being held on $35,000 bond in the Pottawattamie County Jail. He faces charges that include On-going Criminal Conduct, Felony Eluding, three counts of Possession with the Intent to deliver (marijuana/methamphetamine/prescription drugs), Carrying a Weapon, and OWI. He was also cited for speeding and stop sign violations.

Deputies from Pottawattamie, Cass, Audubon and Shelby Counties assisted in the pursuit.
