Shortly before 1:30 a.m. Sunday, Davenport Police Department tried to conduct a suspicious-vehicle stop on a golf cart stolen from a City of Davenport golf course, officers allege in affidavits.

Sindt “did knowingly possess a stolen golf cart valued at over $1,500,” affidavits say. He failed to stop for marked patrol units that were activating their lights and sirens, and fled eastbound on West 4th Street in the 1500-1600 hundred blocks – a westbound-only roadway, officers allege in affidavits.

In affidavits, police say Sindt abandoned the golf cart in the 1600 block of West 4th Street and fled on foot.

Sindt, who was being held Monday on $6,000 bond in Scott County Jail, is set for a preliminary hearing April 23 in Scott County Court.
