Rochester man arrested for fleeing law enforcmement

A Rochester man was arrested after trying to flee law enforcement.

The Fulton County Sheriff's office says Deputy Abbigayle Miller observed an SUV commit a traffic infraction in the area of CR 650 S. and Old US Hwy 31 located in Fulton County. She initiated a traffic stop using her emergency lights but the vehicle failed to yield.

The vehicle then entered into Miami County and turned north onto 400 S. from 1350 N. The vehicle then drove off the roadway into a bean field and then through a fence. When deputies caught up with the vehicle they found the driver door opened and the driver had fled.

Deputy James Dulin used his K-9 partner, Agi, and performed a track of the driver. A short time later they located a male lying in the field. Agi was sent to apprehend the male who surrendered without further incident.

The male driver was identified as Cary Guyer, 31, of Rochester. Guyer was transported to Woodlawn Hospital for medical clearance but did not suffer any injuries from the incident.

Guyer was booked at the Fulton County Jail for Resisting Law Enforcement with a Vehicle, Resisting Law Enforcement, Driving While Suspended-Prior, Operating a Vehicle Never Licensed, Possession of Methamphetamine, and Possession of Paraphernalia.

The Miami County Sheriff’s Office and the Indiana State Police assisted Fulton County.
