Arrested Suspect In Santa Rosa Pursuit Had Meth: Police

SANTA ROSA - Santa Rosa police arrested a 32-year-old man on suspicion of possession of methamphetamine after a vehicle pursuit Monday, a police sergeant said.

A Windsor man reported a reckless driver in the area of Santa Rosa and Maple avenues around noon, Sgt. Dave Linscomb said.

The caller said a gold Ford Focus was driving through red lights and stopping in the middle of the road.

Officers located the car in the Bryden Lane and Pacific Avenue area, Linscomb said.

The driver stopped, but drove away when the officers tried to contact him.

During the pursuit in east Santa Rosa, the driver weaved in and out of traffic lanes and drove through several red lights and stop signs, according to Linscomb.

The driver, identified as Santa Rosa resident Jose Manuel Carbera-Infante, stopped and surrendered at Montgomery and Jackson drives.

Officers found his driver's license was suspended and there was methamphetamine and an open beer container in the vehicle, Linscomb said.

Cabrera-Infante was arrested on suspicion of drug possession and violating several probations for prior drug cases, Linscomb said.
