Boone Man Involved In High-Speed Chase Tells Officer He Was Choking

A Jefferson Police Officer was involved in a high-speed pursuit, reaching speeds of nearly 85 miles per hour Sunday morning during a routine traffic stop. At approximately 9:37 a.m., the officer witnessed Daniel Hansen of Boone fail to stop at a posted stop sign at the intersection of Elm and 220th Street. He attempted to pull over the Hansen vehicle, but it continued on 220th Street, finally yielding near Pioneer Ave. east of Jefferson. Hansen told the officer he was choking on food and did not see the lights behind him. He was cited for excessive speed, 85 in a 55 zone.
