Three-State High-Speed Chases End in Arrests

Multiple early-morning vehicle pursuits this week ended in arrests across three states. In Cedar Falls, Iowa, officers tried to stop a suspicious black 2016 Chevrolet Equinox near Cedar Valley/Cedar Ridge Christian School around 12:41 a.m.; the juvenile male driver fled, was arrested after the chase ended in the 'C' lot on the University of Northern Iowa campus, and faces charges including second-degree theft, eluding (class D felonies) and reckless driving; Cedar Falls Police were assisted by UNI Police and the Black Hawk County Sheriff's Department. In Harrison County, Mississippi, 19-year-old Collin Rayne Bozant is charged with felony fleeing and other traffic offenses after allegedly fleeing a trooper at about 98 mph without headlights, losing control and crashing on Old Highway 15; he sustained no serious injuries. In Jefferson County/Louisville, Kentucky, Kentucky State Police arrested a juvenile after a short chase in a stolen white Mazda SUV linked to thefts in Elizabethtown and Radcliff; the teen was captured following a brief foot pursuit and faces multiple charges including first-degree fleeing or evading police, wanton endangerment of an officer, receiving stolen property over $10,000, and criminal mischief. Charges are allegations and the defendants are presumed innocent.
