Shawn and I were surprisingly awaken this morning to our power going out and a siren going off. We were alittle freaked out cause we had no idea what was going on. We opened our front door and the was a Police cruiser, with no one in it. Shawn got really excited and said that they were in a foot pursuit. He turned into "COP MODE" and starting looking around our backyard and everything. A couple mintues later 2 other cruisers showed up, than a three other crusiers showed up. We set up and watched out our window for about 20 mintues and then decided to go to bed. Well, today I was looking on the Channel 6 News website and this is what I found:
An early morning run from the law landed one man in jail after a short trip to the hospital.
Around 4:15 Tuesday morning, Pocatello Police pulled over Steven Leischner on a suspected DUI in the area of North Main and Kraft Road in Pocatello.
According to police, Leischner then took off from the traffic stop, but didn't get far. The car he was driving crashed into a power pole near Foothill and Oakwood, knocking out power in that area. Power has since been restored.
Leischner received minor scrapes in the collision and was taken to the hospital to be checked out. He is now in the Bannock County Jail, charged with possession of suspected marijuana, possession of suspected methamphetamine, DUI and felony eluding.
P.S. OUR POWER WAS OUT FOR 4 HOURS, AND I WAS AN HOUR LATE TO WORK!

That is crazy. It's a good thing that knocking the power out is the only damage he did!
