A Lincoln woman was arrested after a pursuit with a Nebraska State Patrol trooper Tuesday afternoon. The patrol says around 3:20 a trooper received information about a Pontiac Grand Am driving recklessly on eastbound I-80, just west of Lincoln.
The trooper spotted a vehicle traveling more than 110 miles per hour and passing other vehicles on the shoulder of the interstate. The patrol says the trooper initiated a pursuit and less than two minutes later the car went off the road, struck a road sign and went into a ditch before coming to a stop near mile marker 394.
The driver, 28 year old Makaila Fryrear was booked into the Lancaster County Jail for willful reckless driving, flight to avoid arrest, and no operator’s license.
