(Webster City, IA) — Authorities in Hamilton County say a man called them asking for help early Monday morning, then refused to stop when he was approached. The police pursuit on Interstate 35 reached speeds topping 100 miles an hour. The Iowa State Patrol was finally able to convince 34-year-old Braden Alan Johnson of Garner to pull over. The chase passed through Story and Polk counties before it ended. Investigators say Johnson had a three-year-old child in his vehicle while leading them on the high-speed pursuit. He faces several charges including eluding and reckless driving.
