(Glenwood, Iowa) – An incident in Mills County at around 7:30-p.m. on May 14th lead to a pursuit, a crash and the arrest on a man from Nebraska, five-days later. The Mills County Sheriff’s Office today (Saturday), said that on May 14th, the Sheriff’s Office was advised of a possible “Rolling” domestic violation incident taking place on southbound Interstate 29. Callers advised a female in the vehicle was being assaulted, and had actually tried to jump from the Ford Taurus with Nebraska plates.

Deputies were able to locate the car, and attempted to make a traffic stop, but the vehicle took-off at a high rate of speed. A pursuit was authorized, and deputies continued to try and stop the vehicle. Authorities say, at one point, the car crossed the median and proceeded head-on towards on-coming traffic, almost striking several vehicles, including a Sheriff’s Deputies’ vehicle, head-on.

The Taurus eventually crashed through a fence and drive through a field by the southbound rest area. Deputies were unable to get turned around in-time, and lost sight of the car. Multiple attempts were made to locate the suspect, who had already pushed the female victim out of the vehicle. Drones and K-9 Units were deployed, but were unable to locate the suspect, who was later identified as 33-year-old Darontae Orduna, of Omaha.

The female victim was transported to a local hospital for treatment of her injuries. Deputies immediately applied for, and were granted, multiple arrest warrants for Orduna, who was taken into custody on Friday, May 19 in Omaha. He faces multiple charges, including Kidnapping and Felony Domestic Assault.

The Mills County Sheriff’s Office extends a special “Thank you” to the U-S Marshal’s Service for the Southern District, and the Omaha Police Department’s Fugitive Task Force/Gang Unit, for apprehending Orduna, who authorities said “was a dangerous fugitive.”
