Gavin Thompson, a 23-year-old man from Dodgeville, Wisconsin, was arrested in Nebraska after a high-speed chase on Interstate 80, during which a deceased woman was found in the back seat of the vehicle he was driving. The woman has been identified as 67-year-old Dorinda Segebrecht, reported missing from Dodgeville earlier in the week.
