A man in Soldotna, Alaska, is facing multiple charges after allegedly ramming into multiple vehicles and assaulting two women who witnessed. As per the police, he was then found naked under a power line, shortly after yelling that he was on acid and that everyone was going to die, including President Donald Trump.
As reported by KTUU, citing an Alaska State Police affidavit, the incident occurred on Monday, June 8. At around 3:30 p.m., troopers received reports of multiple rammings involving a pickup truck on Scotch Run Road and Jones Road.
Upon arrival, a driver spoke with one of the droopers. According to her, she was driving northbound on Stoch Run Road when a 2005 GMC 1500 rear-ended her.
The woman, potentially fearing for her life, tried to run away from the pickup truck. Instead, she was forced into a ditch, where her vehicle overturned, the affidavit said.
Second Ramming
Next, troopers interviewed another driver involved in the rammings. He was also driving on Scotch Run Road, but southbound. All of a sudden, the man felt another car hit him from behind. As per police documents, the driver “though he was dead,” as the impact was very strong.
Fortunately for the driver, he managed to get out of the traffic incident alive. He didn’t even require getting medical attention.
Meanwhile, as per the affidavit, the 2005 GMC 1500 drove past this second driver. Eventually, the pickup truck, just like the first vehicle involved, fell into a ditch on Scotch Run Road and Aquarius Avenue.
Third Ramming, Witnesses Assaulted
Before troopers responded to the aforementioned ditch, they came across a third rammed car, a 2015 Jeep Cherokee. Witnesses alleged that the GMC mentioned above had also pushed the Jeep into the ditch.
Finally, troopers interviewed two female witnesses who had seen the GMC crash into a ditch. Shortly after approaching the pickup truck to check on the driver’s well-being, the man, later identified as 25-year-old Jacob Jackson, allegedly threw a rock at them after asking him if he was okay.
The thrown rock missed, but that wouldn’t be the end of it. Jackson is accused of lunging at one of the women, who pushed him back, and later punching the other one in the face.
Trump Comments, Found Naked
Jackson, as per state police, returned to one of the previously rammed cars and attempted to enter the vehicle. The owner wouldn’t allow it, allegedly punching him in the face, with a witness holding the 25-year-old down in an effort to de-escalate the situation.
While he was lying down, Jackson allegedly said he was on acid. Then, as per the affidavit, he yelled that everyone was going to die, including President Donald Trump.
The suspect managed to break free and ran away. State police said that he was later found, thanks to a drone, naked under a power line near Vonda and Mark Boulevard.
Arrested and Charged
Jackson was placed under arrest. While on the way to being booked, he allegedly kicked the center divider, and, upon arrival, he attempted to run away. He was unsuccessful.
Jacob Jackson is facing multiple charges. These include four counts of third-degree assault, two counts of fourth-degree assault, two counts of reckless driving, two counts of reckless endangerment, second-degree assault, leaving the scene of an accident, second-degree attempted escape, second-degree attempted harassment, and disorderly conduct.
If convicted of his third-degree assault charges alone, he could spend up to 5 years in prison for each count. No mugshot was made available by state police.
