ADDISON COUNTY — On July 6 at approximately 9:25 p.m. Vermont State Police attempted to stop a motor vehicle on Route 116 North in Bristol. The vehicle failed to yield and continued at a high rate of speed north on the highway, police reported. 
With troopers in pursuit, the vehicle turned onto LaRose Lane in Bristol. The vehicle pulled into a driveway and the driver and a passenger fled on foot. 
Troopers later located both individuals hiding in a nearby wooded area and identified them as Patrick Johnson, 30, of Alburg and Trisha Delibac, 21, of Winooski.
During the ensuing investigation, police determined Johnson had been driving the vehicle. While speaking with him, troopers detected indicators of impairment, so they screened Johnson for driving under the influence and subsequently arrested him for DUI, second offense; attempting to elude; negligent driving; and driving with a suspended or revoked license. 
State police alleged that during the investigation, Delibac provided false information to troopers in an attempt to deflect their investigation. They arrested Delibac and cited her for providing false information to law enforcement. 
Johnson is due to answer his charges in Addison Superior Court, Criminal Division, on July 27. Delibac’s court date is Sept. 28.
