FREDERICKSBURG, Va. — A man wanted in Pennsylvania for felony abduction faces a host of new warrants in Virginia after attempting to evade Fredericksburg Police last month.

Eugene Montaque, out of Westmoreland County, was driving a minivan at about 8:50 p.m. on April 30 around the 1400 block of Airport Avenue in Fredericksburg, when police attempted a traffic stop. 

Montaque then took off, according to police, driving across the front yard of several residences and hitting a parked Ford Fiesta. He hit a second car near Ruffins Pond before the pursuit finally ended at the intersection of Tidewater Trail and Route 17 in Spotsylvania County, with police unable to locate him.
