A person was arrested after leading an ISP trooper on a pursuit in Cass and Fulton counties.

Around 9:00 p.m., last Thursday, a trooper was patrolling on State Road 25 in Cass County when he observed a yellow motorcycle with its taillight not illuminated. The driver was later identified as Jamie Corbin, 43, from Rochester. The trooper attempted to stop the motorcycle on State Road 25 near County Road 900 North. The motorcycle led the trooper on a pursuit through Cass and Fulton County roadways, reaching speeds of approximately 80 mph.

The pursuit continued northbound on State Road 25 before coming to a stop at County Road 950 South in Fulton County. Corbin fled on foot but was later taken into custody.

A subsequent search of the motorcycle revealed suspected methamphetamine.

During the investigation, the trooper reported that he was able to gather information leading to the belief that Corbin was under the influence. Corbin was transported to an area hospital for a certified test before being transported to the Fulton County Jail.

Further investigation revealed Corbin had two active warrants out of Howard County.

As a result of the pursuit and ensuing investigation, Corbin was preliminarily charged with:

Resisting Law Enforcement with a Vehicle (prior) – Level 5 Felony Possession of Methamphetamine- Level 6 Felony Operating a Vehicle While Intoxicated – Class A Misdemeanor Resisting Law Enforcement- Class A Misdemeanor

The trooper received assistance at the scene from other troopers from the Peru Post and the Fulton County Sheriff’s Office.
