A dangerous car chase on Teton Pass ended with the arrest of an Idaho man last week.
Early in the morning on Friday, the Teton County Idaho Sheriff’s Office received a call about a suspicious vehicle parked near the library in Victor.
When Teton County Deputies approached the driver of the vehicle, 26 year-old Devin James Howe, of Idaho Falls, they found that the vehicle was reported stolen in Bingham County, Idaho.
Howe raced away from the scene heading southbound on Highway 33 towards Teton Pass, reaching speeds over 90 MPH while driving recklessly and with the headlights off.
Teton County, Wyoming officers deployed a spike strip near Wilson, but Howe kept driving on flat tires into until he was stopped at the Highway 22/89 Junction. Howe was taken into custody on the charge of being in possession of a stolen vehicle. Other charges in the Teton Pass chase may be filed.
