QUINCY, Wash. – The Grant County Sheriff’s Office arrested a man after he attempted to break into a home, led police on a chase, drove the wrong way on I-90, and is now under investigation for DUI.

Quincy Police officers responded to a call around 1 p.m. on Tuesday at a house on the 1900 block of Ninth Avenue Southwest, where a man was reported knocking and attempting to enter the home.

When officers tried to pull over the suspect’s car, he fled into rural areas, prompting Grant County police to initiate a pursuit.

The man then stopped, made a U-turn, and drove the wrong way onto I-90, heading into oncoming traffic.

After another attempted U-turn, police performed a PIT maneuver to stop the suspect’s car.

Cruz J. Terrazas Barrera, 34, was arrested and booked into Grant County Jail for investigation of DUI and felony eluding.
