DOMESTIC DISTURBANCE IN TOWN OF BIRCH ENDS WITH OWI, RESISTING OR FLEEING AN OFFICER
On Thursday March 19th, Lincoln County deputies were called to a domestic disturbance on Railway Street in the Town of Birch.
Authorities say Jacob Ellis of Irma left the scene before deputies arrived but was later located driving in the area. After initially failing to stop, deputies made contact and observed signs of impairment. Ellis refused field sobriety tests and even denied he was driving. He was arrested and booked into the Lincoln County Jail on multiple charges, including felony bail jumping, OWI first offense, and resisting or fleeing.
