High speed chase in Bonner and Boundary Counties |
December 17, 2014 |
A high speed chase that started in Bonner County
and crossed into south Boundary County occurred
last Sunday night on December 14.
According to the Bonner County Sheriff's Office,
Bonner County officers identified two men as
having arrest warrants out. When officers
attempted to accost the men, the men left in a
pickup, heading north.
A police pursuit ensued, with speeds "way past
the speed limit," according to the Bonner County
Sheriff's Office. At one point the chase crossed
into Boundary County.
Eventually the suspects abandoned their vehicle,
and headed into the woods. Bonner County
officials contacted Boundary County and
requested a K9 tracker at around 11:00 p.m.
Boundary County officers and a Border Patrol
agent assisted in attempting to locate the men
after the vehicle had been abandoned. After
searching for about an hour, the search was
terminated. The abandoned pickup truck was
impounded by the officers.
The representative from the Bonner County
Sheriff's Office indicated that officers there
know who the men are, and are continuing to seek
their arrest. |
