UPDATE: A dramatic high-speed chase in Fairfield has just concluded with the arrest of Aaron Cutchon, who now faces multiple charges including assault with a deadly weapon and drug-influenced driving. The incident unfolded earlier today at approximately 12:03 PM, when local police attempted a routine traffic stop on Travis Boulevard.
The situation escalated quickly when Cutchon resisted arrest, striking an occupied patrol car before fleeing the scene. In an alarming display of reckless driving, he was involved in three hit-and-run accidents during his escape, with one resulting in injuries.
As police pursued him, Cutchon’s chaotic journey ended when he lost control of his vehicle, rolling it over. In a desperate bid to evade capture, he fled on foot and sought refuge in a nearby business on Oliver Road. However, his luck ran out when an observant officer recognized him and directed fellow officers to his hiding spot.
Cutchon was arrested shortly thereafter and booked into the County Jail, facing serious charges including felony resisting arrest and felony evading. Authorities emphasized the dangers posed by his actions, making it clear that such reckless behavior will not be tolerated on local streets.
This incident not only highlights the urgent need for public safety but also serves as a reminder of the potential consequences of driving under the influence. As investigations continue, Fairfield Police are urging anyone with additional information about the hit-and-run incidents to come forward.
