Man arrested on warrants, drug possession after leading deputies on pursuit

A Calaveras County man has been arrested on several warrants as well as suspected drug possession after failing to yield during an attempted traffic stop last week.

Around 9:30 PM on Monday, November 18, a deputy on patrol in the Valley Springs area spotted 38-year-old David Adams of San Andreas driving a vehicle with expired registration.

Knowing Adams had several warrants to his name, the deputy initiated a traffic stop near the local Burger King.

Adams refused to yield and so a pursuit began, reaching speeds up to 80 MPH. Officials say that during the pursuit, Adams drove over curbs, veered off the roadway, and occasionally drove against traffic.

He eventually stopped at the end of McCauley Road, where deputies were able to block him in and place him under arrest.

During his arrest, deputies found suspected methamphetamine.

His passenger, identified as 40-year-old Nichole Bonneau, was cited at the scene after being found in possession of drug paraphernalia and prescription pills without a prescription.

Adams was booked into the Calaveras County Jail on suspicion of evading a peace officer, possession of a controlled substance, possession of drug paraphernalia, and misdemeanor warrants.
