Around 5:00 p.m. Monday, police, making a stop for a routine traffic violation, were led on a high speed car chase. The chase began at Barry Road and Indiana Avenue. The driver was in a stolen red Jeep and was also wanted for felony warrants in Kansas and Missouri. The chase led police along 153 highway, travelling in both the eastbound and westbound lanes. The driver then cut through several residential neighborhoods, driving through yards and plowing down fences in an effort to elude police.
Because of the time of day and traffic congestion, police stopped their pursuit by car and followed the Jeep by police helicopter. The driver fled on I-29 and I-635, at times heading straight through oncoming traffic on the wrong side of the interstates at speeds in excess of 90 mph. Film footage of the incident shows items being thrown from the Jeep. A witness later found a make-up bag containing what she believed to be drugs and drug paraphernalia.
The driver made his way into Kansas and eventually abandoned his vehicle at 30th and Brown in Kansas City, KS. The woman was immediately arrested and the driver ran into a burned out building where he was later arrested.
The Kansas City auto accident attorneys at Kansas City Accident Injury Attorneys is grateful that no injuries were reported. Hopefully we won't hear of any similar news stories in the near future.
