Around 11am on January 9, 2019 a Joplin Police Detective Captain was driving in the area of 7th and Scotland, east of 7th and 249 on unrelated business when he observed a vehicle that matched the description of the suspect vehicle in this case.
The truck was a red Dodge Ram, Extended Cab, no plates, stickers on the back glass and occupied by two white males.
He followed the vehicle east and then north while coordinating Missouri Highway Patrol and Jasper County Sheriff’s Department to assist him.
