Drug Suspect Who Escaped Squad Car Re-Arrested

Two days after he was arrested the first time, a drug suspect has been taken into custody again by Eau Claire Police.  When a Wisconsin Highway Patrol trooper made a traffic stop Sunday, he found two pounds of meth in 25-year-old Joshua Robertson’s car.  While troopers were putting the drugs in evidence bags, they say Robertson managed to get out of the patrol car and run away.  Authorities got a tip Tuesday and arrested him without incident.  He’s being held in the Eau Claire County Jail.
