A Danville man was arrested on 15 warrants Tuesday afternoon (Jan. 25), with some of those related to several high-speed chases in the area in recent weeks.
Dallas Michael Garr, 25, has been charged with aggravated eluding of law enforcement, reckless driving, speeding, ignoring a stop sign, one-way street traffic violation, driving on the wrong side of two-lane roadway, driving under suspension, and several other traffic violations. Garr also had an outstanding warrant from Henry County for possession of a controlled substance, second offense.
Garr was taken to the Des Moines Count Correctional Center with no bond.
According to a press release issued by the Des Moines County Sheriff’s Office, deputies arrested Garr at 1:30 p.m. Tuesday at his apartment in Danville. Garr isolated himself in the bedroom and refused to surrender to deputy’s commands.
In response, the sheriff office’s K-9 was utilized to locate and detain Garr, who was attempting to hide in the bedroom.
Garr’s warrants stemmed from a parole violation warrant back in September 2021.
