NSP: 19-year-old arrested after topping 110 mph during pursuit

OMAHA, Neb. — A 19-year-old man is in custody after a late-night pursuit that topped out at speeds above 110 miles per hour.
The Nebraska State Patrol says a trooper observed a westbound Acura going over 100 miles per hour on Interstate 80 in Omaha near 84th Street at approximately 12:45 a.m.
The trooper attempted a traffic stop, but as the trooper approached the vehicle and attempted to make contact with the driver, the driver accelerated and fled the traffic stop, according to an NSP press release. Another trooper initiated a pursuit, NSP says.
The fleeing vehicle reached speeds in excess of 110 miles per hour before it lost control and crashed near the L Street interchange. No other vehicles were involved in the crash.
The driver, Chase Groves, 19, of Omaha, was then taken into custody without further incident. He was treated for minor injuries at Bergan Mercy Hospital and then lodged in Douglas County Jail for flight to avoid arrest, willful reckless driving, and possession of marijuana – less than one ounce.
