Man Arrest After Chase In Gilliam & Sherman Counties

A Prineville man was arrested after leading sheriff’s deputies on a pursuit through multiple counties on Sunday.  According to the Gilliam County Sheriff’s Office, deputies there tried to stop a car for a traffic violation on Highway 206 about ten miles west of Condon.  The driver refused to stop, and after being pursued west by deputies at speeds reaching over 110 miles per hour, officers discontinued the pursuit due to the unsafe speeds.  A short time later, deputies with the Sherman County Sheriff’s Office located the same vehicle and initiated a pursuit, with the suspect ultimately crashing in Wasco, and being taken into custody without incident.  38-year-old Jason Day of Prineville is facing multiple charges in both Gilliam and Sherman counties along with multiple outstanding warrants in other counties.
