Man spotted driving recklessly multiple times in Renovo arrested

Renovo, Pa. — A 21-year-old Montandon man is facing felony and misdemeanor charges stemming from what police describe as "an ongoing incident" from June 17 to July 4.

Nathaniel S. Strouse was driving at a high rate of speed up and down Fifth Street in Renovo on June 17. "He came within inches of intentionally striking a 25-year-old pregnant female on the street, who had to jump out of the way," police wrote in a press release.

Another person in the vehicle then threw a full, unopened beer bottle at this victim's head, narrowly missing it, according to the report.

Between June 17 and July 4, police received multiple reports of Strouse speeding and driving recklessly around Renovo, according to court records.

"On July 4, Strouse again was driving up and down Fifth Street at a high rate of speed. Strouse intentionally accelerated and swerved at a 23-year-old male, striking him with the vehicle and causing injury," police wrote. Strouse then sped away.

The act was captured on video, according to the report. Strouse also got out of his vehicle and threw a beer bottle at another 26-year-old male, causing him to lose consciousness and collapse on the ground. Both victims were transported to hospitals for treatment, police said.

Strouse has been charged with aggravated assault, two counts of aggravated assault by vehicle, accidents involving death or personal injury, two counts of simple assault, two counts of recklessly endangering another person, two counts of reckless driving, careless driving, and duty to give information and render aid, according to court documents. Strouse was arraigned by MDJ Frank Mills on July 9 and committed to Clinton County Correctional Facility in Lieu of $25,000 bail.

Strouse's preliminary hearing is scheduled for Aug. 8.
