Deputies with the Douglas County Sheriff’s Office jailed a woman after an alleged attempt to elude incident early Thursday.

A DCSO report said at 1:00 a.m. a vehicle passed a patrol vehicle at a high rate of speed near the intersection of Northeast Stephens Street and Northeast Alameda Street in Roseburg. The vehicle showed no signs of slowing down. The deputy initiated his overhead lights and almost simultaneously the vehicle reportedly ran a red light at the corner of Stephens and Northwest Edenbower Boulevard.

The vehicle headed northbound on Interstate 5 while the deputy pursued from Stephens to Calapooya Street into Sutherlin. The pursuit was terminated. A Sutherlin officer resumed the pursuit on West Central Avenue when it was safe to do so. Eventually the vehicle stopped on its own near the 100 block of Jade Street in Sutherlin.

20-year old Gabriela Rudd exited the vehicle and told the deputy she was scared to stop, so instead kept going. Rudd was charged with attempting to elude a police officer in a vehicle, reckless driving and for recklessly endangering another. She was cited for traffic violations as well. Rudd was held without bail.
