JACKSON COUNTY —Law enforcement authorities are investigating three suspects following a chase in Jackson County.

Shortly after 9a.m. Monday a sheriff’s deputy observed a northbound black 2017 Lincoln MKZ passenger car with an expired registration, according to Jackson County Sheriff Time Morse.

The deputy attempted to initiate a car stop on the vehicle. The vehicle continued northbound near 142nd&nbsp;Road and allegedly nearly struck a northbound truck near 150th&nbsp;Road. 

The vehicle traveled west at 174th&nbsp;Road and back to 75 Highway heading southbound at speeds in excess of 100mph, according to Morse. 

A Shawnee County Deputy deployed a tire deflation device rupturing both passenger’s side tires of the suspect vehicle. The vehicle excited 75 Highway at 46th&nbsp;Street and attempted to re-enter the highway on the southbound onramp but came to a stop at that location. Troopers with the Kansas Highway Patrol, deputies with the Shawnee County Sheriff’s Office and the Mayetta Police Department assisted with the incident.

Three occupants were taken into custody. A quantity of methamphetamine was seized during the stop. The driver, Michael Gonzales, 32, of Topeka, was arrested for felony fleeing and eluding a law enforcement officer, reckless driving, operating a motor vehicle without a driver’s license. Gonzales also had an outstanding felony probation warrant from Osage County.

The front seat passenger and owner of the vehicle, Katrina Glaspie, 40, of Manhattan, was arrested on numerous requested charges of identity theft and and outstanding warrants from Riley County.

The rear seat passenger, Evalt Catling Jr., 24, of Topeka was arrested on requested charges of possession of methamphetamine, possession of marijuana drug paraphernalia. He also had outstanding warrants from the Topeka Police Department.

HOLTS SUMMIT, Mo. (AP) — A historic Black church in Missouri has been vandalized, leaving its congregation reeling and authorities looking to find out who did it.

The Callaway County Sheriff’s Office said in a Facebook post that the acts committed at the Mount Vernon Missionary Baptist Church in Holts Summit, Missouri, are “despicable and quite offensive,.”

Deputies responded to the property at 1:32 a.m. Thursday following an alarm call. They discovered that both the historic church building and a newer one completed in the early 2000s had been struck by vandals.

Photos show what appear to be bullet holes and boot prints on the older building’s front door. Windows are smashed and an air-conditioning unit tipped on its side. Inside there are gaping holes in the walls, pews tipped over, toilets shattered, furniture smashed. Even the blades of the ceiling fans above the sanctuary are broken.

Callaway County Sheriff Clay Chism said Friday that a final monetary estimate of the damages is still pending, but it “is significant.”

Mt. Vernon was established by slaves in the early 1800s and later rebuilt in 1869, Pastor Gordon Coleman said in a Facebook post. The church celebrated its 150th birthday in 2016.

Vernon Wayne Brock, 71, of Alva, was sentenced in U.S. District Court in Oklahoma City to 87 months in prison.
