Jackson - A Pioneer man who fled from police last Thursday in Jackson was captured the next day on tribal grounds in the Jackson Rancheria casino. On Thursday November 5, 2009 at approximately 1614 hours a deputy from the Amador County Sheriff’s Office on routine patrol was checking a secluded area behind the Central Church of Christ located on Trent Way in Jackson. While checking the area the deputy found Michael Dean Hines, 48, of Pioneer at the rear of a vehicle stripping the plastic protective sheath off sections of copper wire. The deputy was familiar with Hines and was aware that Hines was on probation. A records check of Hines revealed two active felony warrants for Hines’ arrest. As the deputy attempted to place Hines under arrest, Hines pushed the deputy and fled on foot towards New York Ranch Road. A brief foot pursuit ensued and additional law enforcement units were requested for assistance. Amador County Sheriff’s Deputies were assisted by officers from the Amador County Probation Department, Jackson Police Department and the California Highway Patrol (CHP). A perimeter was established near the point where Hines was last seen and deputies searched the wooded area on foot with the assistance of a CHP helicopter. After approximately ninety minutes, the search for Hines was terminated. A subsequent search of Hines’ vehicle revealed suspected methamphetamine, methamphetamine use paraphernalia and an unlawful weapon in addition to the suspected stolen copper wire. On Friday November 6, 2009 at approximately 1638 hours, Jackson Rancheria Security Officers notified the Amador County Sheriff’s Office that Hines was on tribal grounds within the casino. Tribal Security maintained surveillance on Hines until arrival of Amador County Sheriff’s Deputies, at which time Hines was taken into custody without incident. Hines is currently in custody at the Amador County Jail with bail set at $150,000. A TSPN TV Staff Report This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.
