Thrilling Pursuit Leaves Authorities Baffled

Suspicious Activity Sparks Investigation

In the early hours of the morning, police on patrol in the area around the MIG Sales lot on South Main Street noticed the headlights of a vehicle were still on. As they investigated further, they discovered a white 2016 Dodge Charger with a broken rear window. Suspecting a break-in, the officers shone their spotlight on the scene, only to see two suspects dressed in black fleeing the area. Despite their best efforts, the police were unable to apprehend the suspects.

Attempted Theft Reported, but Owner Refuses Investigation

The officers then reported the attempted theft to the owner of the property, Fred Greil. Greil revealed that the car had already been sold, and the new owner was scheduled to pick it up from Missouri. Greil refused to allow the car to be taken for investigation, and instead assigned his service manager to replace the broken window and prepare the vehicle for transfer to the new owners.

Stolen Vehicle Spotted in High-Speed Chase

Just a few hours later, police received a call reporting that the vehicle had been stolen from the dealership. An off-duty sheriff's deputy spotted the white Dodge Charger driving at over 100 mph on US 33, passing other vehicles on the median and off the shoulder of the road. The deputy was unable to apprehend the vehicle, and the suspects managed to evade the authorities.

Police are actively searching for the vehicle and the suspects involved in the theft, but have yet to identify any leads.

Investigating the Motive and Potential Connections
