    Cottonwood AZ (December 29, 2013) – On December 25, 2013, just after 3 PM, Yavapai County Sheriff’s Office deputies were dispatched to a hit and run/assault incident that occurred on Mountain View Road and Western Drive, Cottonwood. The investigation resulted in the arrest of 42-year-old Gary Wolf of Rimrock, Arizona.

     The 19-year-old victim told deputies he had been driving his grandfather’s 2013 black Dodge Durango south on Highway 260 between Del Rio Drive and Western Drive near Cottonwood. His 15-year-old sister was a passenger at the time. A red Dodge pick-up drove up behind him and began following very close. Even when the victim increased his speed, the Dodge pick-up continued to “tail gate” and maintained the unsafe distance until the intersection at Western Drive. At that time, the Dodge passed the victim and pulled into a left turn lane. 20131229_Wolf-Gary-LeeThe victim entered the left turn land behind the Dodge to head home. After making the turn the victim saw the truck driver, later identified as Gary Wolf, exit the truck and began waving his arms and acting aggressive towards him. The victim verbally responded and suggested Wolf follow him home. The victim’s intent was to have Wolf speak to his father.

    When the victim turned north onto Mountain View Drive from Western Drive, he saw the truck race to catch-up. As the truck passed the victim, it collided with the front left side of his Dodge Durango. The victim was able to obtain the license plate number before losing the truck as it sped away. Both victims also provided a detailed description of the truck along with its driver and passenger.

Deputies found physical evidence indicating a collision with the victim’s vehicle. Wolf denied all knowledge of the incident.

    Analyzing City’s Legal Right to
    Ban OHVs on Public Roads

    By Tommy Acosta
    Mea Culpa! Mea Culpa! Mea Maxima Culpa! I screwed up. Blew it. Totally made a fool of myself. Missed the boat. I am talking about my editorial on the OHV fight, No Legal Traction on OHVs. I assumed that it was ADOT that would make a decision on whether the city could legally ban off road vehicles from our public roads like S.R. 89A and S.R. 179. Man was I off. ADOT has nothing to do with allowing or disallowing the city to do so. ADOT’s response to me when I asked them to clarify their position, was curt and to the point. “ADOT designs, builds and maintains the state highway system,” I was told. “It is not our place to offer an opinion on how state law might apply in this matter.” It was a totally “duh” moment for me when I realized that that the decision or judgement on the OHV ordinance, would involve the state and not ADOT. Chagrinned I stand. The crux of the matter then is whether the city can effectively use a number of standing state laws that can be interpreted to determine whether the city can legally ban the vehicles or not.
