Four such chases, similar to those on TV police dramas, originating in Willard, Clearfield, and Salt Lake City, have come to an abrupt halt in the area. Ken Bryant, administrative assistant for the field bureau chief for the Utah Highway Patrol, said what seems an increase of d pursuits comes from, the crashes being spectacular and getting news coverage. We average two or three d chases a week in Salt Lake City; most just dont go to the extent the ones have (in Da- -' vis County)," Bryant said.

State in Clearfield are unreasonable. Clearfield officials approved a list of 10 conditions recom- -' mended by the planning commission for the proposed facility special City during a Council meeting last week. The city earlier denied a conditional use permit for the center and was overruled by the 2nd District Court. The case is now being appealed by the city to the Utah State Supreme Court. City Attorney Mel Wilson recommended the conditions be approved in the event the court rules against the city and petitions to stay the occupancy of the proposed facility. The city will at least have set conditions in an attempt to minimize the impact to the neighborhood, he said. Councilman Kay Chandler emphasized as part of his motion to approve the conditions that the establishment of these conditions should in no. way be considered as an approval of the conditional use permit nor should a conditional use permit be considered until litigation is completed." Williams said he attended the special meeting "thinking I would the to discuss be able conditions." But the meeting was adjourned before he was given the opportunity to speak.

A Salt Lake City man and a man yet to be identified were killed when the driver lost control of the vehicle, which rolled over and burst into flames. On June 15, a Manti man was arrested after he fled Willard, Weber County, and Riverdale law enforcement agencies before ramming the back end of a car at a busy Roy City intersection where he was apprehended. Bryant said one reason for d pursuit centers around the fact that people dont realize the ramifications of what theyre doing. Some dont realize the gravity of the situation." Other factors Bryant said are often contributors to a d chase include the use of drugs and alcohol and the age of the driver. People between the ages of 2 and 30 are usually involved, Bryant said. The penalty for evading an officer' was changed in the late 1970s, when three new stipulations were added, which takes the crime from a Class A misdee meanor to a felony. Involvement in a d chase, or evading an officer, is a felony if the driver exceeds 90 mph, inflicts bodily injury, or causes property dam- - File photo shows Sec CHASES, page 2A chase Feb. 16 that v f 4 f SPECIAL Area scene of Review ..r rxt .... reidioj muruers i Serving .Roy and northern Davis County . , five-ye- On the agenda Best quote high-spee- d ar |
