Last Friday, a motorcycle was pulled over by Officer Viergutz for illegal maneuvers, leading to a brief chase and drug bust. The Fairfield Police Department reported that around 8:00 AM, the driver, identified as Kenneth Grace, attempted to evade law enforcement after being stopped near East Pacific Avenue.

Grace, a 46-year-old on post-release community supervision for firearms-related offenses, chose flight over compliance, leading to a sprint that ended under the capable paws of K-9 Bosco. Grace has discarded suspected narcotics during his run, which the officers later found in a nearby front yard. During the arrest, he also carried a substantial sum of money.

Subsequent investigations at Grace's abode by Day 2 officers under the PRCS search guidelines turned up various magazines for a Glock handgun. However, the firearm itself remained absent from the scene. After being medically cleared, Grace found his freedom further constricted as he was booked into County Jail.
