NORTH PLATTE, Neb.-A North Platte man who was wanted on a federal warrant is now facing new allegations.
According to police, on Monday, officers were dispatched to a disturbance in the 2300 block of East Philip Ave. Police said it was reported that a male was dragging a female by her arm. Reports indicated the couple had departed in a vehicle.
Officers were able to conduct a traffic stop on the vehicle and made contact with the couple who denied that an altercation had taken place.
Police said the male was wearing a stocking cap and face covering and was asked for identification, which he denied having. He did, however, provide a name and date of birth. The female followed suit, saying she didn't have identification and provided a name.
Police said further investigation revealed the couple was not being truthful about their identities. The male then identified himself as Kaleb Slaymaker, 24. As officers worked to confirm Slaymaker's identity, police said he fled on foot.
While officers pursued Slaymaker, the female allegedly got into the vehicle and fled the area.
Police said Slaymaker was soon located hiding under a porch and taken into custody on suspicion of resisting arrest, criminal impersonation, and for the warrant.
The investigation is ongoing.
Slaymaker was jailed at the Lincoln County Detention Center.
