11/24/24 - LCSO Case #24-6261 - Deputy deploys MobileSpike to safely end pursuit of DUI driver (Photo) - 11/25/24

Just before midnight on November 24th, a Lane County Sheriff’s deputy observed a gray 2007 Dodge pickup driving south on I-5 from Goshen at a high rate of speed. A deputy assigned to Creswell attempted a traffic stop as the vehicle passed through the area at over 90 miles per hour, and a pursuit ensued. The deputy deployed his patrol car’s MobileSpike system, which began a controlled deflation of a tire on the pickup to slow its speed.

The driver, Jack Daniel Bates, 49, of Oregon City, pulled over after exiting the freeway onto Saginaw Road. The deputies observed signs of impairment. After investigating, Bates was arrested and lodged at the Lane County Jail for DUI, Driving While Suspended - Felony, and Attempt to Elude by Vehicle.
