1Opinion of the Court
RICHARD B. TEITELMAN, Judge.
Gail L. Daws failed to yield to police officers who attempted to execute a traffic stop. Daws pleaded guilty to charges of failure to yield to an emergency vehicle in violation of section 304.022, RSMo 2000. 1 Following the guilty plea, the state charged Daws with the class D felony of resisting arrest in violation of section 575.150. The circuit court dismissed the charge for resisting arrest on grounds that the successive prosecution violated Daws’ right to be free from double jeopardy. The judgment is reversed, and the case is remanded.
