Joplin man wanted after fleeing from Sarcoxie Police


(From the Sarcoxie Police Department)

WANTED
Jakobi Douglas Norman
 
Initial traffic stop for 64 mph in a 35mph zone. Failed to stop; a short pursuit was initiated.
 
Stopped for the officer in front of Kum and Go. He was asked for his driver's license and insurance. He stated his insurance was on his phone, but stated the bike was insured.







 
The motorcycle plates came back expired, Norman did not have an MC endorsement and could not provide insurance. He was advised that the MC would be towed due to these reasons. He proceeded to jump back on the MC and flee from the officer. The officer proceeded a short distance but terminated due to Norman's dangerous driving.
 
He is wanted for resisting, careless and imprudent driving, no valid DL, no insurance, and failure to register a motor vehicle.
 
Charges will be sent to the city attorney.

(Editor's note: Previous online court records indicate Norman is a Joplin resident.)
