A man has been arrested after allegedly hitting a Buchanan County Drug Strike Force vehicle with his own vehicle in an escape.
Lance Tyler Pollard, 26 of St. Joseph is charged in Buchanan County with a felony of resisting arrest.
According to court documents, on March 30 two investigators with the Drug Strike Force tried to stop a vehicle in reference to an ongoing drug investigation.
“The vehicle disregarded the emergency lights and siren and fled. The fleeing vehicle struck Investigator Brinton’s Drug Strike Force vehicle, causing injury to Investigator Hewitt requiring medical attention,” said Officer Billy Paul Miller with the Buchanan County Sheriff’s Office.
Miller said as it left the scene the vehicle hit another vehicle in a nearby parking lot. Court documents state that Pollard was identified as the driver of the fleeing vehicle.
Pollard is currently being held on $25,000 bail. He’s due in court Friday for an arraignment.
