Danville Police Searching for Man Who Fled from Traffic Stop

Danville police are searching for a suspect who fled from a vehicle pursuit this morning, police said. Christopher Ramos, 27, fled from police in the 700 block of Contada Circle, according to Geoff Gillette, a spokesman for the town of Danville.

Gillette said an officer attempted to make a traffic stop of a car with two occupants shortly after 10 a.m. but the driver failed to yield and fled from police instead. Police then discovered the vehicle was stolen, Gillette said.

Officers pursued the car to Contada Circle, where one suspect was taken into custody. Gillette said police have not yet released the man’s identity.

Police described Ramos as a white male, roughly 5 feet 9 inches tall, weighing approximately 145 pounds. He was seen wearing dark-rimmed glasses, blue jeans and a white shirt and was carrying or using crutches, police said.

Anyone who sees Ramos should call 911.
