Police: Traffic Pursuit Ends in Arrests in Reston

A Dumfries man was arrested after he tried to flee from police at Reston Parkway and Sunset Hills Road Sunday night.

Police said officers observed a vehicle committing a traffic offense at the intersection and attempted to stop it. The driver failed to stop and a pursuit ensued.

Once the vehicle came to a stop the officer observed the driver and passenger switch seats. An investigation determined that Dale Caison of Dumfries was the driver of the vehicle during the pursuit.

Caison was arrested, taken to the adult detention center, and charged with speeding to elude and driving with a revoked license. The passenger, Elizabeth Bledsoe was arrested and charged with obstruction of justice.

Caison has a long list of previous drug, traffic and weapons charges in Prince William County, some stemming from a Manassas drug ring that led to the arrests of 25 people in 2011.
