A father and son riding on separate snowmobiles are facing heat from police after the pair allegedly tried to avoid deputies Saturday at a snowmobile checkpoint.
The Oneida County Sheriff’s Office said Sayne W. Rondeau, 40, and his 14-year-old son turned around on a trail at about 3:45 p.m. near a checkpoint on Fuller Road and then led deputies on a chase.
Deputies said they pursued the duo – the son was not identified – along trail C7 and onto private property where deputies apprehended the son, who allegedly failed to negotiate a curb.
At one point, the elder Rondeau allegedly accelerated past Deputy N.K. Ames, who was on foot. Rondeau jumped a snow bank, landed on Route 274 and nearly struck Deputy Eric Cadwell, deputies said.
The elder Rondeau returned to check on his son and was arrested, deputies said. He is charged with second-degree reckless endangerment, endangering the welfare of a child, reckless operation of a snowmobile, failure to comply with an officer, failure to yield to an emergency snowmobile, driving an unregistered and uninsured snowmobile, failure to stop at a roadway and failure to cross a roadway at a 90-degree angle, deputies said. His snowmobile was towed from the scene.
The son was released to a family friend at the scene.
