ELKHART, Ind.  -- A man was arrested Sunday afternoon for allegedly resisting law enforcement while driving a four-wheeler, according to Elkhart Police.

Just before 1 p.m., an officer saw a dark colored four-wheeler traveling south across Baldwin Street on the roadway.

Elkhart County sheriff’s deputies located the suspect at a business on Nappanee Street, reports said.

The man, 39-year-old Brandon Robinson, was taken into custody on a preliminary charge of resisting law enforcement and leaving the scene of a crash.
