Springfield man arrested after attempted elude in Veneta
On March 1st at 9:30 a.m., Lane County Sheriff’s deputies responded to a report of a vehicle trespassing in the 25100 block of E. Broadway Avenue, Veneta. The vehicle description matched a vehicle that had recently fled from Eugene Police officers. The suspected driver, David Johnathan Guggenmos, 41, of Springfield, had a felony warrant for his arrest.
The vehicle left before deputies arrived, but was located in a nearby church parking lot. Deputies staged in the area and an Oregon State Trooper staged a spike strip nearby.
The vehicle soon left the parking lot and a deputy attempted a traffic stop. The vehicle fled, as expected. The Trooper successfully deployed spike strips, deflating 3 tires and slowing the vehicle to around 25 miles per hour. The vehicle turned into a parking lot off E. Hunter Road and was pinned against a curb.
The driver, Guggenmos, was not initially cooperative but was arrested without further incident and lodged at the Lane County Jail on the following charges:
- Elude by Vehicle
- Resisting Arrest
- Parole Violation warrant for conviction on Unlawful Use of a Motor Vehicle
Thanks to Oregon State Police for their assistance on this incident.
