On Jan. 25, 2020, at approximately 4:47 p.m., officers were sent to Walmart, 2900 South Ninth Street in Salina in regard to a shoplifting in progress.
While proceeding to Walmart, the officers were advised the two people involved in the reported crime entered a white four-door Dodge Avenger. The subjects attempted to leave the parking lot and struck a parked car. The subjects exited the parking lot and fled northbound on Interstate 135 (I-135).
The involved subjects were stopped near the junction of I-135 and Interstate 70 (I-70). When officers approached the vehicle, the driver of the vehicle fled traveling eastbound on I-70 at speeds exceeding 100 mph. The pursuit was terminated out of concern for the public’s safety.
