A 54-year-old Gays Mills man has been charged in Crawford County Circuit Court with one count of operating a motor vehicle while revoked and one count of operating a motor vehicle while intoxicated (fourth offense in five years). On Jn. 22, he was charged with OWI as well.

David S. Rasch faces up to 7 years imprisonment and $12,500 in fines if convicted of both counts.

According to the criminal complaint, Rasch was seen by a Crawford County Sheriff’s Department deputy driving over the centerline on Highway 131. The deputy activated his emergency lights and siren and pursued the vehicle. Rasch then accelerated and drove between 48 and 50 mph on a wet, gravel road called Sand Creek Road. The pursuit went on for two miles.

Rasch was then arrested for OWI and transported to Crossing Rivers Health for a blood draw.

Rasch has previously been convicted of OWI three times.
