Nathan Patrick-Thomas Ling, 17, of Belleville waived his preliminary exam before a 19th District Court judge on Nov. 19 and was bound over to circuit court for an arraignment on the information.
He is due to be at the Frank Murphy Hall of Justice on Nov. 26 before Wayne County Circuit Court Judge Deborah Thomas.
He is being held in the Wayne County Jail on bond of $50,000/cash or surety, requiring a tether if he should make bond.
Ling was arrested Nov. 7 during his third attempt to elude Dearborn Police, this time on foot.
Van Buren Township Police put out the alert of a stolen vehicle and when a Dearborn police officer tried to stop Ling in the stolen vehicle, he fled at speeds up to 100 mph and the officer terminated the pursuit.
Later in the evening, Ling was spotted with the same stolen car by another Dearborn police officer and fled again, this time crashing into a bar at Wyoming and Michigan avenues. He fled on foot to a nearby building where he scaled a wall and taunted police and fire personnel by swearing loudly at them. He was taken into custody.
Warrants were issued by the Wayne County Prosecutor’s office on two counts of fleeing police officers, possession of a stolen vehicle, unlawful driving away of a motor vehicle and three counts of assaulting, resisting, obstructing a police officer.
