A Faribault man allegedly under the influence when he led officers on a high-speed chase and crashed his car into a house Friday has been charged with multiple felonies in Rice County District Court.
Mohamed Abdiaziz Ali, 19, is charged with criminal vehicular operation, fleeing a peace officer and causing great bodily harm, felony terroristic threats and felony fourth-degree assault on a peace officer.
Court documents state Ali was charged after a Faribault police officer was on patrol Friday morning, when he saw a blue passenger car Ali was driving travel north on Ninth Ave. SW at 50 mph in a 30-mph zone. Ali allegedly did not stop when the officer tried to pull him over and later accelerated to speeds greater than 80 mph in a residential area, later striking a house at 128 Tower Place, damaging the home and knocking out a large window.
