We are getting multipe inquiries about police activity last night and this morning.
-This morning we were dispatched to 1301 South Maiden Lane for a suspicious vehicle. A male ran from the vehicle into the woods and others in the vehicle were detained. It was determined to be a stolen vehicle. Officers are finishing up in the area. There is no substantial threat to public safety in the area, but there was a large police presence initially.
-Last night Miami Nation Tribal Police attempted to stop a vehicle in Miami. The vehicle initially stopped and then fled from them. They initiated a pursuit which involved Ottawa County, Quapaw PD, and several Tribal Police agencies. The pursuit entered Missouri and they requested assistance from us to try and deploy Stop Sticks. We were not able to get in position to deploy Stop Sticks, however the driver stopped and fled into the wooded area around McClelland Park. A perimeter was established and track was conducted utilizing K9 Ax. The driver was located by K9 Ax. He was taken into custody without incident. The driver was identified as Travis Perry and had several felony warrants out of Jasper County. His bond totaled $60,000.
