A man led a deputy through Hitterdal at speeds reaching 80 mph, then fought officers during his arrest, leaving three with minor injuries, according to charges. The pursuit began Sept. 18 after a deputy clocked a driver at 66 mph in a 55-mph zone on the 27000 block of 90th Avenue North in Clay County.

Cody Lee Jacobson, 44, of Hitterdal, is charged with felony fleeing in a motor vehicle, felony fourth-degree assault of a peace officer and gross misdemeanor obstructing legal process.

The deputy turned around and activated his emergency lights, but the driver continued west through Hitterdal without slowing, according to the complaint. With the deputy’s siren sounding, the driver made several turns before heading south on Highway 32 and accelerating to 80 mph.
