    A second felony charge, aggravated fleeing or attempting to elude a police officer, a Class 4 felony, was also filed against Devers on Dec. 27 stemming from a Nov. 9 incident in Wood River. Bail on that charge was set at $20,000.


    In Wednesday night’s other police pursuit, John A. Sanders, 32, of the 2321 block of Edwards, Granite City, was charged with aggravated fleeing or attempting to elude a police officer, a Class 3 felony.
    According to court records and scanner traffic, the chase began at about 8:45 p.m. Dec. 26 in Venice, and worked its way through Southern Madison County until after 10 p.m. after Granite City police used three spike sticks to stop the vehicle.
    According to police radio traffic, the vehicle continued to weave around the Granite City area with two flat driver-side tires at speeds between 10 and 20 mph.
    Much of the chase was described as a “very low-speed pursuit” by Granite City police.
    Bail was set at $15,000.
