Prosecutors dismiss 2 cases against man charged with fleeing police
He previously pleaded guilty to charges related to Barto murder James Howard-George
The Butler County District Attorney dropped two cases against a Butler man accused of running from city police after finding there wasn t enough evidence to prosecute him.
On March 6, police were searching for suspects in an assault when they stopped James Howard-George, 27. He allegedly ran away from police and left his backpack behind, which police said had a gun in it.
A few weeks later, on March 31, police arrested Howard-George after an alleged foot chase. For the first incident, Howard-George was charged with possession of a firearm without a carry license, a felony, and resisting arrest, a misdemeanor, and in the second case he was charged with flight to avoid apprehension.
