Colorado man tours Capitol
at high speed, lands in jail
By Janet Stefanski
Staff Reporter
A Colorado man on a motorcycle,
who wanted to see Gov. Bob Kerrey, led
Lincoln police on a high-speed chase
around the Nebraska State Capitol
Wednesday noon.
"He wanted to see the governor and
get his name in the papers," said Sgt.
Art Bandars, of the Lincoln Police
Department. "He said he wanted to run
for a public office."
The incident ended at 16th and K
streets where Lincoln police officers
pulled the man off the motorcycle.
Bandars would not release the name
of the man, but said he is from Ever
green, Colo., and in his mid-30s. The
man is being held at the Lincoln city
jail.
He was charged with fleeing arrest,
reckless driving, assault, improper reg
istration and littering because he
reportedly threw his helmet on the
ground.
"He tried to drive over a police
officer," Bandars said.
The man failed to stop for red lights
or yield to pedestrians, Bandars said.
"Pedestrians were trying to avoid
him," he said.
A road block of about five cruisers
was set up at 16th and K streets to stop
the man, and noon-hour traffic was
temporarily halted.
At the scene of the incident, passer
bys, many of whom were on their lunch
hours, stopped to watch the man circle
the Capitol.
A citizen told a Lincoln police officer
about the man's reckless driving. Some
one else reported that the man had
been driving around the airport earlier,
Bandars said. No charges were filed in
that incident. "
