NOPE!"},"content":{"rendered":"\n<p>On June 26th around 10pm, University Place deputies conducted a traffic stop on a vehicle with an expired temp tag and no front plate on Bridgeport Way W and Custer Road W.&nbsp;The driver admitted to not having a valid license and explained his situation to the deputy. A short time later, the deputies learn the man has a domestic violence warrant for his arrest and ask him to step out.&nbsp;The man flees the traffic stop to a nearby home and attempts to run into the house. Lakewood Police officers were able to arrest the man and hand him off to Pierce County deputies. He makes one last attempt to not go to jail by faking a seizure. It is not uncommon for suspects to fake seizures when they don\u2019t want to go to jail, but to always be safe, Fire was called to assess the suspect and make sure he was ok. Fire confirmed he was ok and did not appear to have a real seizure. The 58-year-old male was booked for his domestic violence warrant, in addition to his new crimes of eluding and obstruction.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Oh, and the house he attempted to run into was actually his house. He was not homeless like he told the deputy. Another great job to these deputies and the Lakewood Police officers who assisted. The lesson learned in this? Faking a seizure won&#8217;t get you out of jail.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\"  id=\"_ytid_97918\"  width=\"800\" height=\"450\"  data-origwidth=\"800\" data-origheight=\"450\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/5w5PqgqXePw?enablejsapi=1&#038;autoplay=0&#038;cc_load_policy=0&#038;cc_lang_pref=&#038;iv_load_policy=1&#038;loop=0&#038;modestbranding=0&#038;rel=1&#038;fs=1&#038;playsinline=0&#038;autohide=2&#038;theme=dark&#038;color=red&#038;controls=1&#038;\" class=\"__youtube_prefs__  epyt-is-override  no-lazyload\" title=\"YouTube player\"  allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen data-no-lazy=\"1\" data-skipgform_ajax_framebjll=\"\"><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>On June 26th around 10pm, University Place deputies conducted a traffic stop on a vehicle with an expired temp tag and no front plate on&hellip;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":89,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"om_disable_all_campaigns":false,"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"_uf_show_specific_survey":0,"_uf_disable_surveys":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[],"tags":[38640],"aioseo_notices":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v23.2 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Faking a Seizure to Get Out of Jail?
