Ridgway Man Jailed in Clearfield County
A Ridgway man accused of forcing a police car off the road during a chase is facing a number of charges.
St. Marys Police say they stopped 69-year-old Martin Hincliffe for a traffic violation and learned he was wanted on a warrant from Clearfield County. They also learned the registration he had didn’t match the car he was driving. While police were investigating, Hincliffe drove off and pulled an officer with him.
The officer was able to get free. During the ensuing chase, Hincliffe drove through several roads, highways and yards, forced one patrol car off the road and attempted to force another off the road later in the pursuit.
When they stopped him, Hincliffe was first taken to the hospital for a blood alcohol test, and was then taken to Clearfield County Prison.
