United States - July 09, 2025 A dramatic high-speed pursuit ended in a violent rollover crash on July 9, after a suspect wanted on multiple warrants led authorities through several Missouri highways. The chase began in northern Missouri and moved south on U.S. Highway 63 before shifting east on Interstate 70. The Missouri State Highway Patrol disengaged near a construction zone but alerted Montgomery County deputies of the suspect’s approach. At approximately 9:45 a.m., deputies identified the black Volkswagen Taos with Texas plates traveling eastbound near the 155-mile marker. Around 10:07 a.m., they attempted a traffic stop near mile marker 176.2. The driver accelerated rapidly, reaching speeds over 100 miles per hour, weaving through traffic, and using the shoulder to pass other vehicles. The suspect exited the highway at mile marker 179 in High Hill, failed to stop at a sign, lost control, skidded sideways, and nearly struck a marked patrol vehicle before re-entering eastbound I-70. Jonesburg Police deployed spike strips at mile marker 184, puncturing both passenger-side tires. The suspect continued eastbound, exited at mile marker 186, and drove through a ditch onto the South Service Road before turning onto Scudder Ranch Road and heading east on Warren County State Highway B. Roughly 1.5 miles later, the vehicle left the roadway and rolled multiple times before coming to rest in a cornfield. The 24-year-old man from St. Louis was taken into custody at the scene with minor injuries. He was transported for medical evaluation before being booked into the Montgomery County Jail, where he remains held without bond. Authorities confirmed he faces charges of aggravated fleeing from law enforcement, operating a motor vehicle in a careless and imprudent manner, and operating a motor vehicle without a valid license. Montgomery County Sheriff’s Office expressed gratitude to Jonesburg Police and the Missouri State Highway Patrol for their assistance in ending the pursuit safely.
