Legal problems continue to mount for 42-year-old Jason Yahn, who has a history of fleeing law enforcement. Already jailed on a series of bench warrants, Yahn has now been arraigned on charges of felony fleeing, recklessly endangering another person and several summary violations stemming from a high-speed pursuit on April 5, according to Lycoming Regional police.

While operating a four-wheel all-terrain vehicle that night along the berm of Route 220 between the Main Street and Thomas Avenue interchanges in Potter County, Yahn, formerly of McGill Hollow Road, failed to stop for an officer that attempted to pull him over. It is illegal to operate such a vehicle on the highway, police said.

Yahn, who had a female passenger riding with him, exited at Thomas Street and turned onto Railroad Street, almost upsetting the ATV, police said. Yahn continued a short distance before going down a ditch and riding onto a set of railroad tracks, which ended the officer’s involvement in the pursuit. During his investigation, the officer, with several helpful tips from the public, learned that Yahn was in fact the alleged operator of the SUV. At the time, Yahn was on a court-ordered GPS monitor, and the “the GPS coordinates from Yahn’s monitor on the night of the pursuit matched up perfectly with the locations and time” of the chase, police said. Following his arraignment earlier this month before District Judge Denise Dieter, Yahn, now homeless, was recommitted to the Lycoming County Prison in lieu of an additional $100,000 bail.

He was arrested and jailed following a very brief pursuit with city police on May 7 that began at Second and Memorial avenues, and ended at Grier Street, where he crashed into a parked pickup truck at Grier Street.
