Reckless driving motorcyclist, attempting to initiate pursuits, arrested.
For one of the charges of attempting to elude, deputies discontinued the pursuit for the safety of the community, as the suspect entered the city of Moses Lake driving extremely reckless.
After developing more information, deputies sought and found Gwinn in Cascade Valley where he again tried to elude law enforcement before he lost control of his motorcycle and attempted to flee on foot. He was apprehended a short time later without further incident.
Sheriff Tom Jones said, “A great deal of thanks is owed to community members who called in numerous tips. Innocent people were in danger just being in this suspect’s path, including our own law enforcement officers. I am very pleased with this arrest. Great job, all, for identifying the suspect leading to the successful arrest with no one getting hurt.”
