He was fined $250, and given 20 days In Jail, 14 days suspended. Judge Reynolds also suspended Mantle's driver's 11- cense for six months. REYNOLDS SAID HE COULD not believe a person would drive so fast with a small child In the car. State Troopers Richard Bradley and W.G. Lamoreaux they both entered the chase.

Bradley said he observed Mantie accelerating from the curb In Sequim. When he turned on the red light, Mantle speeded up ahead of him. Trooper Lamoreaux was also In Sequlm and got behind Mantle's vehicle, but could not catch him. Mantle turned off several roads in attempts to outrun the patrol car. On the Priest near Sequim, both vehicles went over a raised section of railroad tracks.

LAMOREAUX SAID HE SAW that Mantle cracked open the oil pan of his high-powered car and was losing oil. He stated that the oil pan on the patrol car had also been damaged and was losing oil but he did not know It. After a short distance, Lamoreaux had to give up the chase when his oil-indicator light came on. Lamoreaux teamed up with Bradley, who was in the vicinity, and together they followed Mantle's trail of oil. They came upon the abandoned vehicle on Dungeness Spit.

Mantle was arrested at his home a short time later. Bradley told the court the only reason Mantle gave for his actions was at the beginning of the chase, he thought it was the Sequim Police and he knew he could outrun them. SPEAKER Lt. Col. Eric Newbould, left, and Lt.
