Escalon Police were advised of a subject with warrants in the 1900 block of McHenry on Wednesday, Aug. 5. They responded and subsequently made contact with the subject, who fled the scene on foot. After a brief foot pursuit, the man was taken into custody. He was wanted on two warrants out of the Escalon Police Department, each for $50,000. Police said Donnie Boatman, 28, of Escalon was arrested on the warrants, one for being a fugitive from justice, a felony warrant; and one for possession of controlled substance, a misdemeanor warrant. He was booked at San Joaquin County Jail and additional charges of obstructing a peace officer were filed in the case.
