West Point, Ca — When a Calaveras County Sheriff´s Deputy attempted to pull over 38-year-old Steven Herman of West Point earlier this week, he led law enforcement on a six mile chase that reached speeds of 70 mph.

The pursuit started at the intersection of Main St. and Hwy 26 in West Point and ended at the driveway of Herman´s residence on Hwy 26 in West Point. During a search of the vehicle, deputies found over three ounces of marijuana as well as a switch blade knife.
