 Amador County – In other Sutter Creek news, the Sutter Creek Police Department reported a vehicle was suspected stolen by a parolee-at-large on Wednesday morning after the suspect fled another vehicle being pursued by police. According to Sutter Creek Police Chief Rob Duke, one of his department’s officers saw a white GMC Yukon driving erratically on Old Highway 49 south from downtown Sutter Creek towards the new 49 bypass at approximately 5 a.m. Wednesday. After the officer turned around, the Yukon spun out as it turned south onto the bypass and the suspect had fled on foot by the time the officer arrived. “Both front doors were left standing open possibly indicating that there were two suspects. Officers and Deputies from Jackson P.D. and Amador Sheriff's Office responded to assist with the search but the suspect (or suspects) were not located,” said Duke. He said officers discovered a handgun and a small quantity of drugs, and an allied agency check on the Yukon led to the discovery that it had been involved as evidence in a domestic violence case in Sacramento on the previous evening. The SCPD believes the Yukon was driven by the suspected parolee-at-large from the domestic violence incident. Later that morning, an unattended running Toyota Corolla was stolen from a driveway on Foothill Drive, located approximately a quarter mile from where the Yukon was abandoned. Duke said all times for the incidents are approximate. For further information, contact Rob Duke at 209-304-8269. Story by Alex Lane
