Eau Claire Man Reaches Plea Deal, Admits Ramming Police Squad Car

An Eau Claire man will avoid spending six months in prison if he stays sober and doesn’t get into trouble for two years.  Josiah Emberson has admitted resisting arrest and ramming a squad car during an incident last year.  Police say they spotted Emberson slumped over the steering wheel of a car which was running and in gear.  When he woke up, he tried to drive away.  Officers say they had to use a Taser and pepper spray to take him into custody.
