FARGO — A Bismarck man was arrested after police say he fled from a traffic stop Thursday night, Nov. 4.
The incident began at around 10:30 p.m. when the North Dakota Highway Patrol says a trooper attempted to stop a 2015 Chevrolet Silverado on I-29 in Fargo for traveling 95 mph in a 55 mph zone. Officers say when the trooper initiated the traffic stop, the driver did not stop but instead exited northbound I-29 onto 13th Ave and then re-entered southbound I 29, continuing to flee and eventually taking the exit ramp to travel westbound on I-94.
