2/9/14 - A man who allegedly fled from police and rammed a patrol car faces multiple charges. The Livingston County Sheriffâs Dept. put out a âbe on the lookoutâ for a Ford pickup truck, âjacked âupâ and with extra-large tires after the driver fled from deputies at a traffic stop. Police say the driver was later spotted by a state trooper in the area of Fisher and Curdy roads in Oceola Township. The trooper stopped the vehicle, but the pickup truck driver began backing up to get away. The driver was ordered to get out of the vehicle, and responded by ramming the patrol car. However, the officer was able to pin the truck in a snow bank. Still, the man continued to resist attempts to arrest him, and the trooper had to call for backup help from officers. The suspect was taken to the Livingston County Jail on pending charges of drunk driving, resisting arrest, fleeing and eluding, driving on a suspended license and other charges, pending arraignment in 53rd District Court in Howell.
