SOUTH SALT LAKE South Salt Lake Police are looking for a driver who fled during a traffic stop Tuesday morning. A passenger is recovering from injuries after leading officers on a foot chase.
At 3:45 a.m. an officer made a routine traffic stop near 2700 S. Main Street. The officer suspected the vehicle may have been involved in a crime in Salt Lake.
When the officer approached the vehicle, the passenger jumped out and ran. The driver then drove away.
The officer chased the passenger on foot. The chase went though yards, over fences, even onto a roof.
"Throughout his process of running and jumping over fences, attempting to elude officers, he sustained some injuries to his arms and to his body," said Sgt. Eric Jensen of the South Salt Lake Police Department.
The officer's police dog, Baker, eventually tracked the suspect to a nearby home and found him hiding in the garage. He was taken to a local hospital to be treated for his injuries.
The suspect, whose name has not been released, was expected to be booked into the Salt Lake County Jail for fleeing from police.

Foot chase over fences, roof ends with arrest
Toronto, Canada (PRWEB) July 30, 2013
Total Fence Inc. (http://www.TotalFenceInc.ca), the leader in residential, industrial, and commercial fence and deck installation in the Greater Toronto Area, warns residents that the recent heat and humidity in the region could result in damage to fences, decks, and custom carpentry projects.
For those living in the Greater Toronto Area, its not uncommon to focus on the damage the cold and wet weather has on decks, fences, and other custom carpentry projects. Its also important to remember that the heat and humidity associated with Torontos hot, short summers can also be damaging, says Tony Defeo, owner of Total Fence Inc. By understanding the problems associated with excessive heat and humidity, homeowners can understand the kind of preventative measures that need to be taken to protect their most valuable asset.
According to Defeo, all wood fences and decks, whether theyre treated or untreated, are susceptible to the damaging effects of heat and humidity. Thats because direct exposure to heat from the sun causes wood to dry out and shrink. Over time, the cyclical weather patterns can cause wood fences and decks to crack, split, and warp, damaging the structural integrity.
Persistent exposure to moisture, whether in the form of excessive rain, humidity, or even shade cover, can be a breeding ground for mildew, mold, or other organisms that feed on wood, Defeo says. Wood-boring insects can also cause irreparable structural damage on wood that is not pressure treated.
The hot and humid summers in the Greater Toronto Area can be especially tough on decks, Defeo warns. Because decks are flat, horizontal surfaces, they retain water, ice, and snow for long periods of time. On top of that, horizontal surfaces are subject to a lot more direct sunlight than fences are, which accelerates damages.
Unfortunately, many commercial and residential property owners think pressure treated means their fences and decks are waterproof, Defeo adds. While pressure-treated lumber protects against rot and decay, it does not provide weather protection on the surface. It can actually make the wood more porous and prone to moisture damage, which can lead to structural failure.
The experts at Total Fence Inc. conclude that to maintain the strength and integrity of fences, decks, and custom carpentry projects like a pergola or arbour, regardless of if its a complete installation project or repair, property owners need to hire a licensed team of professionals that offer a complete range of fencing and deck-building services. Failing to do so can lead to even more troubles down the road.
Total Fence Inc. is a leader in residential, industrial, and commercial fence and deck installation in the Greater Toronto Area. With the technical expertise and experience to handle jobs of any size, from small backyard decks to custom carpentry, pergolas, ornamental iron fences, acoustic sound barrier fencing, and industrial chain-link enclosures, Total Fence Inc. provides residents of the GTA and surrounding areas a complete range of affordable fence installation and repair services to suit their personal tastes and needs.

WELLINGTON, July 31 (Reuters) - The New Zealand Rugby Union has asked the Wellington Hurricanes to look at mending fences with Ma'a Nonu in order to keep him playing in the country.
The 31-year-old is in Super Rugby limbo with four of New Zealand's five franchises seemingly uninterested in securing his services for 2014 after two years of insipid performances for the Auckland Blues and Otago Highlanders.
Nonu does not appear interested in returning to the Highlanders, with coach Jamie Joseph all but writing off any chances of keeping him after he was presented with a new contract in April but has yet to sign it.
Nonu was cut loose by his hometown Hurricanes in 2011 when rookie coach Mark Hammett cleared out players he thought might disrupt rebuilding plans.
However, Hurricanes captain Conrad Smith, who has formed a successful partnership with Nonu for the national side, told reporters at an All Blacks training camp in Auckland on Wednesday that Hammett had been approached by the NZRU a month ago about taking the bullocking matchwinner back.
Hammett had then asked Smith his opinion, the centre said.
"He said the NZRU had approached them, so the issue had not come to a head at that stage but they had obviously been sounded out and he just wanted to get my opinion," Smith said.
"It was literally a two-minute conversation.
"I can honestly say I don't know where it's got to or where it's at."
Smith said he would welcome Nonu back in New Zealand's capital, though that decision would need to be taken by those above him.

The world's remaining lions are in trouble. There are simply too many humans hungry for the same land the majestic cats roam. The more the human population grows, the more the lion population plummets. Only fences can keep one species from killing the other, according to a leading lion researcher.
In fenced reserves such as South Africa's Kruger National Park, which is as large as the state of New Jersey, "the population of lions is doing just fine," Craig Packer, an ecologist at the University of Minnesota, told NBC News from his research site in Tanzania.
"However, that is just a small proportion of the total African population of lions. The vast majority of lions live in unfenced reserves and the trends are pretty disturbing," he added.
Counting lions is notoriously difficult work. Current best estimates put the African population at around 35,000. Nearly half of the known populations in unfenced areas are declining to the point that within 20 to 30 years, they will be just 10 percent of their potential population, Packer said.
Humans pushing lions to the brink The reasons for the lion decline are many, most driven by humans, the researcher noted. The biggest is conversion of suitable lion habitat to farm land to support a human population that is projected to quadruple in Africa by the end of this century.
There's also a rise in human-lion conflict. "Lions kill cattle and eat people and people don't like that so there are a lot of retaliatory killings," Packer explained. The killings used to be done with spears and bows and arrows. Today poisoning is ubiquitous, he said.
Other factors behind the loss of lions include poorly managed trophy hunting and the bushmeat trade, which robs lions of their prey and often leads to lions inadvertently getting caught in traps.

Coral Springs has amended an existing law to allow residents living on canals to place fences within water-control district rights-of-way, subject to the district's permission. Fences and landscaping cannot be placed less than 20 feet from the water line.
The change comes after it came to the city's attention that Coral Springs Improvement District (CSID) and South Florida Water Management District (SFWMD) had granted approval for residents to locate private fences within canal rights-of-way. The city's original law prohibited installation of fences outside private property, except for properties in zero lot-line developments with off-set areas between homes.
Of the six water drainage districts in the city, only CSID and SFWMD were initially in favor of allowing fences to encroach into their canal rights-of-way. Subsequently, Sunshine Water Control District also sought the authority to allow or reject pleas from homeowners to install fences on its property. Not every district is in favor of the new law, but districts will not be mandated to approve fences within their rights-of-way.
According to the amended law, residents will be allowed to extend their fences into canal rights-of-way, if there is written approval from the water-control district. Fences and landscaping cannot be placed less than 20 feet from the normal water line. All landscaping within the district's property should be native materials and has to be maintained by the owner.
The city's Planning and Zoning Board voted against the change when it initially discussed the issue in November last year. After Sunshine Water Control, North Springs Improvement, and Coral Springs Improvement districts indicated they are in favor of the proposed amendment, the board, at its meeting in May, recommended changing the law.
Ted Mena, CSID vice president and former city official, was happy to see the law change. "This is about common sense and doing something for the public. We have to be flexible in times of change. We still have the authority to decline requests from residents."
CSID manager Ken Cassel said that the district was disappointed by the way in which the city had decided on amending the law. The district did not have enough time to provide input on the subject, he added.
City Attorney J J Hearn, however, said that the item had in no way "sprung up in the dark." Notices had been sent to all water-control districts informing them about the proposed change. "We do have home-rule authority," he said. "The districts may not agree, but we think this is the right answer."
The city is trying to do what is acceptable to residents and all drainage districts, City Manager Erdal Donmez said. "We try to figure out what is acceptable for everyone. CSID, initially, wanted no limitations at all. That was not acceptable. This is the city's minimum requirement. Each district can establish its own. If there is no minimum, we could have fences all the way down to the edge of the water."

Nutley Revenue and Finance Commissioner Thomas Evans has introduced municipal ordinances that would restrict fences and building use, the latter where parking is inadequate.
FILE PHOTO
Nutley Revenue and Finance Commissioner Thomas Evans proposes a prohibition on fences in front yards.
An amended township code would prohibit any type of fence in a front yard. In addition, the ordinance details requirements for side and rear fences.
Evans also introduced an ordinance prohibiting certain building or premises use unless there is onsite parking.
This would include family dwellings, restaurants, retail stores, offices, hospitals and warehouses, according to the ordinance.
A two-family dwelling should have a minimum of four parking spaces, with at least one space being a garage. Restaurants and bars would be required to have a minimum of one parking space for each 10 seats, the ordinance states. Offices would need a minimum of one parking space for each 300 square feet of floor area.
Public hearings on the ordinances are slated for Tuesday, Aug. 20.
The Nutley Board of Commissioners approved a bond ordinance for capital improvements.
Sponsored by Evans, the ordinance appropriates an aggregated amount of $1.48 million. The amount also authorizes "the issuance of $1.4 million bonds or notes of the township for financing part of the cost."
