Mecosta County Deputies arrested a Reed City man on parole for bank robbery after they say he crashed a car then took off.

The sheriff’s office says 46-year old Timothy Cousins crashed a car on Maddison road near 220th Avenue near Big Rapids.

When deputies got there, they say Cousins and a passenger ran into the woods.

Deputies used a taser on Cousins and arrested him. The passenger was also caught and later released.

Cousins is now charged with resisting and assaulting an officer and driving on a suspended license.
