Pierce County, WA - On June 26th around 10pm, University Place deputies conducted a traffic stop on a vehicle with an expired temp tag and no front plate on Bridgeport Way W and Custer Road W.

The driver admitted to not having a valid license and explained his situation to the deputy. A short time later, the deputies learn the man has a domestic violence warrant for his arrest and ask him to step out.

The man flees the traffic stop to a nearby home and attempts to run into the house. Lakewood Police officers were able to arrest the man and hand him off to Pierce County deputies.

He makes one last attempt to not go to jail by faking a seizure. It is not uncommon for suspects to fake seizures when they don’t want to go to jail, but to always be safe,

Fire was called to assess the suspect and make sure he was ok.

Fire confirmed he was ok and did not appear to have a real seizure.

The 58-year-old male was booked for his domestic violence warrant, in addition to his new crimes of eluding and obstruction.

Oh, and the house he attempted to run into was actually his house. He was not homeless like he told the deputy.
