The complaint says he sped past the traffic point, disobeyed commands by officers to stop and, when he finally stopped after being chased by police, “removed bags of fertilizer from his vehicle and threw them on the ground to make it appear that they were explosives.”

Nauta told law enforcement, the complaint says, that “he intended to make officers, and others, believe that he had explosives.”

    Any relation to Walt Nauta? (Unlikely, I know, but IDK how common or uncommon the last name is.)
