A mid-day traffic stop turned into a high speed pursuit last week when the driver of a Honda Civic refused to pull over in Larchmont and lead officers on a chase into neighboring Mamaroneck.
Jesse Wasserman of New Rochelle was arrested Wednesday afternoon after Larchmont cops cornered him at the end of dead-end Hall Street street in the Orienta Section of Mamaroneck Village.  He was  charged with speeding, fleeing police, reckless endangerment, driving an unregistered vehicle, driving without insurance, and possession of a controlled substance (marijuana).
It turns out this is not the 27 year old’s first run-in with the law.
In 2011 Wasserman, was in the headlines when, as a former student of an elite boarding school, he admitted robbing several people at gunpoint in Manhattan’s Central Park. Â Wasserman was sentenced to one year in jail for that time around. Â It is not known how much jail time he actually served.
This time, given his obvious propensity for flight and the seriousness of the charges, Wasserman is being held without bail.
